Hello Mohammad,
couleur extraordinaire, on a l'impression que les oiseaux fuient une vague géante prête à les engloutir.
Beau coup d'oeil.

Hello Mohammad,
Very original photo with this big wave in the background. The top of the wave is nicely lighted by the un giving a nice effect on the color of the water. Seagulls are pretty sharp as well. A very good photo!

Birds dont pay attention to many subjects human does... But do they are aware of both their beauty and world they live in? Wonderfull capture Mohammad.

nwoehnl (118) 2007-01-25 15:14

Hi Mohammad. Beautiful photo, the elegance of the gulls in flight is so well illustrated and you get three varying poses in the three birds as they are going above the sea. A lovely shot, and a very professional-looking one.

jaywalker (12190) 2007-01-25 15:16

Hi Mohammad, One superb photo, the gulls stand out wonderfully well against their green back ground, what excellent composition, brilliant focus, i hope the wave never caught them up it looks that close, kind regards Wilson.

Gerrit (35545) 2007-01-25 16:01

Hi Mohammasd,
strong picture. The birds in flight are very well catched in the sunlight. The abesence of sky and the big wave place them in an unatural environment. A gtood effect.

Angelillo (9065) 2007-01-25 16:56

Hi Mohammad,

It's really an extraordinary beautiful shot, technically perfect and very evocative: the seagulls, the birds, tell ever about freedom, about the ability to resist and win over the difficults, the travels and futur... in company, like these. Beautiful and poetry! Thanks,

Angel.

Hi Mohammad,

How did you catch this scene? Excellent timing is while adding huge wave behind of seagulls. Faultless timing, colors, sharpness and details are making your photo unique. The light coming from backside of wave is spectacular. Congratulations.

Hi dear Mohammad,

I like the big waves of the sea under the seagulls, excellent green colours and you play lovely with dark and the light, the seagulls are the really eye catcher here, very well done!
Thanks for sharing.

Have a nice weekend,

keribar (42728) 2007-01-27 2:45

Hello my friend Mohammed,
It is always a pleasure to discover your work, and this picture makes no exception.
The birds were caught in a manner where they did not cover each other on the contrary they completed each other. I also enjoy the green hue of the sea.
Best regards - Izzet

Bonjour Mohammad,
une photo qui a dû demander pas mal de patience pour arriver à cadre la scène, simultanéité avec le mouvement de la vague et le passage des trois oiseaux.
Parfait sur le plan des lumières et des couleurs, une vitesse d'obturation bien choisie.

Amitié de Liège.
Daniel.

Didi (35862) 2007-01-27 11:05

Salam Mohammad
Nice dynamic catch with a good green background.
Good control of the depht of field with the seagulls movement.
Cheers.

RGatward (19737) 2007-01-27 11:23

Staggering shot, looks like an almost impossible PoV, and tpo catch 3 of them together is incredible. I wonder how long you had to wait.

kensimage (8539) 2007-01-27 13:37

Perfect timing, Mohammad! The wing positions of the two gulls on the left mesh together perfectly. The light shining through the wave at the top gives nice variation in the tone of the water, and tells us we're seeing a really big wave. One of those shots that stimulates one to dream, to imagine what it would be like to be a bird. Beautiful! Regards, Ken.

Lovely result, poetic and incredible colour for the sea, wonderful tone, well captured, congratulations !

baba_flies (7949) 2007-01-28 9:05

Hello Mohammad ... I do love the colors of the sea, this deep green-blue and I wish I could dip in like the birds, just for a moment and "taste" some salty water ... this is all so nicely taken and I love the birds trying to catch the next wave or maybe just looking out for some fish ... Have a great day, Barbara.

Cretense (55340) 2007-01-28 10:29

Hi Mohammad,
A dramatic capture, with superb clarity of detail, as the birds are dynamic, bathed in fine light. The contrasting emerald sea creates a special ambience here. Very fine work, Mohammad. Its a keeper.
John

pilpel-adom (3016) 2007-02-02 12:24

Hey Mohaamad!
long time since I saw your pictures, and this one is highly refreshing! The clarity here is very very good, and you're timing couldn't be better - getting the three seagulls in formation, and so close to the waves. The green tonality of the sea is appealing and contrasts well with the whiteness of the birds...
Well done!
Chen

inuit66 (659) 2007-02-12 8:05

Hi Mohammad. I like the changing color of green, and in the light green you have the sense of nearly looking inside the wave. You imagine the wave near to its breaking point and the seagulls trying to escape. Fantastic light and details in sharpness. Tight crop is good. Simple and beautiful composition. Greetings Jens :-)

plimrn (19588) 2007-02-15 18:59

Hi Mohammad,
This photo was featured in destinations today. I taken 100's of photographs of gulls and I'm impressed with your framing here. Few people manage to capture birds surfing on the waves although this is a common activity. The deep green of the wave makes a stunning background. I've added you picture to a theme where I'm collecting pictures of birds in flight.

sn00zie (2384) 2007-02-20 9:31

wow! this is beautiful mohammad. a beautiful pov, lovely rich colours.. beautiful work.

Talia (242) 2007-03-19 15:16

Beautiful colors M!
Where were you standing? I'd like to know- but it seems your lens is just right and gives you the focal length needed.
I especially like how each bird is in a different stage in their flying, very cool! Colors, wow!

Talia

bigboroboy (1009) 2007-03-23 21:17

This is amazing. You said it was taken from a pier but the way that you have composed this makes it look as if you were flying with the birds. Excellent POV, very sharp with wonderfully muted colours. Excellent!

A well timed capture of these birds nicely illuminated by the light, from an excellent POV. The movement, created by the wave which provides a perfect BG, is beautiful. The texture and color of the sea are well rendered too. I'll add it to my 'more fav.pic.1'theme.
