Scanning

Beautiful capture of these birds in flight, superb lighting here and very effective DOF where the main subject details been brought out in very sharp form, the colors are so original and the well saturated sky is of a great add to this image appearance and well thought off composition.

Thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

Taken wide-open at f/2 on a 75-mm lens.  The bird in front is perfectly sharp, but the bird behind is a bit soft.  The dull sky really lets the birds jump out of the screen.  My wife and I were taking a tourist boat that trawls for fish.  When they haul in the fish, the birds go crazy.  I'll post the other good picture I took in a few days.  Thanks Rashed.  best, j

A very nicely composed shot with beautiful lighting, Jamie!

With best regards,

Ruud.

Thanks Ruud.  I like the way the pairs of wings complement each other.  best, j

Rich.

Thanks Richard.  Hope you are doing well also.  best, jamie

Superb.

Seabirds become very tame in the presence of defenceless fish, as there were here.  Thanks Tony.  best, jamie
