Hi Rinie!
Great shot with good light at the birds and a nice graphic background.These birds give a great contrast to this except the nice diagonal monotonous facade.
Regards,Leo

What a beautifull photo Dear Rinie! Inside this building probably many people dream to fly free like this seagulls while they are forced to fullfill the ritual of the cotidianity. So interesting photo.
Lots of love,
Miguel
PS: Ey! You´re right, we are back to back and almost with the same number of points.

Dear Rinie. Thought of you a lot. I listened to your Christmas Oratorio again, and it was yet again so beautiful and made me shiver in a good way. Happy New Year to you too!
The graphic nature of this shot is wonderful indeed, the birds look like they are sparkling across the air. Love it, bird against modern building, if you'd like to see, I just posted one similar themed a few days ago...
Take care Rinie.

Hi Rnie,
Beautiful shot! Good focus on seagulls, interesting graphical building behind! Sometimes we discover the beauty of pictures when downloading in the PC ...and other times we are disappointed by a shot we found wonderful on the Camera!
Cheers,
Delphine

Hi Rinie!

I'm glad to see you here! I've seen yet this building in another shot, but in this case wiht another light and the very well captured and interesting seagulls. The building is a perfect background, some dark against the sunny birds, and the seagulls are perfectly defined and give life to a very "technical" ambiance. It's the contrast I see: In the background, the technique, straight, ordered, monochrome and monotone, even if necessary, in the foreground, the life itself, lightful, a little chaotic, unpredictable! An amazing shot, my friend.

Hi Rinie, happy new year, a little late. Very interesting rendering of more of your city's striking architecture. Excellent arrangement of the birds along the diagonal, looks rather like a scatter graph.

Hi Rinie
This is a beautifull contrast between the modern architecture and the freedom of the guls. Excellent contrasts of light also.
Well done

Happy new year, Rinie.
I like this one. there is so much in it - the wonderful BG with the diagonalline, the excellent sunlight that plays on the wings, and the circular flying route, whic we vcan imagineby the relative position of each bird.

This one could be good even without the birds. I like how you packed the frame full of that building and how you composed around that diagonal. The nirds are a fantastic addition, the light that falls on them is fantastic, thanks to the brightness difference they are really beautifully highlighted.

Dag, Rinie. Zelfs als ik een beetje laat ben, wens ik je eerst een gelukkig nieuwjaar.
Hier heb je een zeer grafische achtergrond gevonden waarop de meeuwen zeer goed uitkomen. Al die vensters zo dicht bij elkaar geven toch een gevoel van opgesloten zijn en de indruk van vrijheid die de vogels geven, wordt er nog groter van. Zeer goed contrast.

Hi Rinie, I feel your view has more graphic power than that of Miguel. In yours the diagonal looks like a folding line on a sheet. It is more abstract. The building works well as a dark backdrop behind those luminous gulls.
I wish you the best for 2007.

Mooie compositie met de diagonale lijn die het geheel doorbreekt.
Het contrast tussen het bedompt ogende kantoorgebouw en de vrije vogels die rondvliegen geeft het geheel net even een specialer tintje.

Hi Rinnie.

Simple but beautiful.
The architectural elements make a great background with its geometrical lines. Also the birds are important for the photo.

Thanks for share.

Hello Rinie:

Of this image I like him simple-mindedness of colors and as they emphasize the birds illuminated by the sun on the gray fund of the building.

Congratulations for the good taste.

A greeting and see you soon.

Hi Rinie
Yes how times fly by - one year passed since our great weekend in Rotterdam.
I could reconize this view at once - there must be at least one photo in my archive at well.
I like the composition with the birds as extra elements.
Best regards
Jeppe
