Hello Stavros,
Welcome to TN! This is a fine portrait of a Blue Skimmer. It is pretty sharp and you present it with a good POV.

Hello Stavros,

Very nice picture of this Blue skimmer! The colors looks so natural and you got a great pov... Maybe a little bit more sharpness could have been interesting...

Good pic and TFS,

Michel
