Early Bird
A tern in silhouette cuts across a brooding sepia sky, its forked tail and swept wings frozen mid-flight beside a steel tower. Shot in 2025 early morning near Belfast, in natural available light, the monochromatic treatment strips the scene to pure form.
Sony A7 IV, 100-400mm GM OSS + 1.4x teleconverter at 560mm, 1/2000s, f/8, ISO 160.
