FREEDOM OF HEART..

"Anywhere I go,am not afraid again
I fear no world, nor any hidden secrets..
Fly to the bliss and dream again
I take your heart always in me..
Time passed,I gazed upon skies above
A moment of beauty, rare inspiration
Fleeting vision in my heart,dreams
Fly to the horizon of ever blue ..
Echoes uncounted drops of smiles
Time robed me magic of life
Weary hours,yet night is long
Somewhere the world shrinks deep
To the realms of heart, true ever.. "

SHOT AT KANDACHIRA, KOLLAM.

"Even a very small degree of hope is enough to cause the birth of love."
~Marie-Henri Beyle
(January 23, 1783 – March 23, 1842), better known by his penname Stendhal, was a 19th-century French writer. Known for his acute analysis of his characters' psychology, he is considered one of the earliest and foremost practitioners of realism in his two novels Le Rouge et le Noir (The Red and the Black, 1830) and La Chartreuse de Parme (The Charterhouse of Parma, 1839).

Jean the wonderful freedom of flight comes to mind as I gaze upon this beautiful capture. The lighting is excellent and details nicely rendered in this image. Very fitting poem as well. Did you see the workshop I did on your other photo?
Cheers my friend!

Hi Jean Paul,
It is an excellent composition, with a great management of the light and the time of exposure to catch perfectly the dynamism of these birds flying, in a very agreeable image at sight.
I like the misty environment of background and the branches illuminated by the Sun in FG.
The note also is excellent, congratulations.
Friendly regards,
Josep

Valerka:)

Just what I needed, something peaceful, something in nature, something full of light and grace with excellent note to go with...your special style! I may have liked the background slightly darker, so I do feel the ws is quite good. Have a great weekend dear Japiey !

Thanks for the sharing
Michèle

Hello J.P.

The light is catching this large group of graceful birds to make their wings appear transluscent! Amazing!
Because there are so many birds, all with their wings in a different position, it truly appears as they are moving!
Lovely composition!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
Many thanks for your kind comments on 'Look at Lothersdale'.

Hi JP,
It's amazing that Man has learned to walk, run and swim. Yet, the only thing that has eluded him is the ability to fly. That's why it is fascinating to observe birds in their flights. Gives us a sense of freedom, and also makes us wonder what it would feel like to fly.
Well done,
Have a wonderful weekend.
TFS.

Bonsoir, mon bon ami Jean-Paul,
Ce qui fait que les oiseaux peuvent voler et pas nous c'est qu’eux ont la foi, et la foi donne des ailes.
Ah ! voler n'est-ce pas le rêve de chaque être humain !
La photographie est pleine de poésie avec ces oiseaux blancs aux vols gracieux.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hi Jean Paul,
I love bird sancturies and being close to nature. You have a great photo of these cranes or egrets. I could spend hours at this spot just observing the wildlife and listening to all of the sounds made by the different species of birds. Beautiful work!
Stan

Hello Jean,
The grass, the brook, the birds in flight in that golden light gives me a feeling of enchanted woods. The flight to freedom... in the glorious light.. What more do you want.
Excellent photograph and as usual the captivating notes..
Thanks ,
Smitha.

This is a real good photography, J.P.
Incredible alliance of light, motion and grace...

Not many of those - combined together - you can find on the pages of Te...

Unusually beautiful...

Hi Jean Paul,
beautiful wild life picture in perfect light and colours.

Hi Jean Paul,

Great shot you were able to capture with the birds in mid flight! I've tried to capture such a shot and it took me many tries to get them to look like birds in the air instead of streaks! :o)
Nice composition and beautiful poem, thanks for sharing!

Take care,
Liz

A poetic shot my friend Jean...
Great moment to capture them flying with nice contrast against the bg. Well done and all the best...

Beautiful my friend very beautiful. Such a symbol of peace and harmony. Exactly what I need after having been immersed in agitation and violence in the streets of Paris this morning.

Oh, Jean Paul!
what a marvelous shot!! I LOVE bird photos and this is just amazing. SO many of them and most of them in flight. Perfect lighting and contrast. Even with them being white you got nice detail in the wings. I would LOVE to see so many of those beautiful birds like that. Awesome capture! many thanks, dear friend and warmest wishes,
Shelly

Hi Jean Paul,

The moment of the take-off was well photographed, good timing. They is beautiful birds are gracious and their white feathers reflect the light well emphasizing them well from the vegetable background. It is very pleasant to look at and full with poetry. Thank you Jean Paul.

With all my friendships and with soon,

Jean-Charles

Hello JP,

Yes is must be nice to fly high and away. Interesting image with a nice feeling of freedom. The view is effective with the birds gracing the landscape. Nice colour saturation and sharpness. Very meaningful shot friend. Thanks.

Hi JP,
Nice flight of egrets caught in movement , giving dynamism to the picture. Nice light and colors too. The little blurred twig in the lower left corner could have been moved by hand? ;D
Greetings

Un simple envol d'oiseaux, de belles couleurs et lumières, c'est réussi, Jean Paul !
Bonne soirée
