Bonjour John,
Elle est adorable cette prise. Bébé, confortablement installé sur les plumes de Maman, apparemment indifférent à la pluie qui commence à tomber.
Je trouve d'ailleurs que les ronds faits par la pluie sur l'eau ajoutent beaucoup de poésie à ta composition.
C'est craquant.
Cordialement,
Marianne

Hi, John, what a wonderful shot!!
Lovely light and contrast, fabulous detail, beautifully composed and cropped with the baby resting in its mother's wings. I love the patterns the raindrops(?) are making in the water, too. Really sweet photo! Many thanks and warmest regards,
Shelly

Hello John,
Wonderful composition with excelent detail, contrast and lightmanagement.
Love the patterns of the raindrops in the water.
Your compo made me remembering the title of a song from Simon & Garfunkel: "Mother and child reunion".
Regards,
Henri
