 A tern that flew directly over my head (no gifts, thankfully) while I was out on the beach. A little grainy due to the high ISO, but I only had one shot at it. Cropped, rotated, USM, and cloned in a little more sky at the top edge.

Great bird in flight photo. How would it look rotated 45 degrees to make the wings diagonal? Maybe y0our composition is better?
