Black skimmers flying very fast, still don't know why they do this. I've taken hundreds of shots like these over the years. I figure it's a good slow shutter capture if I can clearly see their eyes and detail on their wings. A lot of the editing in these type of shots is cloning out the image sensor dust spots in the image. Shutter priority 1/60th, ISO 50...
