Black Skimmer

I'm not sure how the hell it took so long for me to capture a decent skimming shot, but I'm stoked with water trail in this one. I would have liked to avoid the shadow on the back, but that would require less staggered wings and cost the image depth. Low sun really helped me hang onto the whites on this high contrast subject. Gotta love this unique behavior!
