[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
It's a pleasure strolling along the windy harbour of Essaouira. A great place to eat the fresh fish just caught under beach umbrellas and watch people passing by.

The fishing harbour, suffering from the competition of Agadir and Safi remains rather small, although the catches (sardines, conger eels) are surprisingly abundant due to the coastal upwelling generated by the powerful northeastern trade winds.

Ciao Luca! Hitchcock would love this photo, it´s like "The birds" film come true. I also like it. A photo to enjoy not to racionalize so let me go straigt to the point: I´m going to watch it.

The bird are awesome. Very nice image, drawn into the man with the red hat. Great work.

Gulls are great in this photo.
Beautiful composition with the man watching them.
Well done!

Salut Luca
What a great sky ! Nice cropping on the birds and the man seems tio be lost in the composition.
Impressive shot
Well done
Bertrand

Bonjour Luca
Impressionnant ce vol de mouettes autour du pêcheur. Bien saisis les oiseaux en plein vol et la casquette rouge ajoute une note de couleur.
Merci pour le partage.
Bon week-end.

of birds.
thanks for sharing

Che bell'effetto questi gabbiani e l'omino con il berretto rosso! Mi viene da paragonarla alla foto che Izzet ha postato proprio oggi, sempre con i gabbiani, di questa stessa città del Marocco.
Questi gabbiani sono proprio come un'emozione, è una foto straordinaria, bravissimo

Bella immagine Luca, si sente la forza della natura e la poesia dell'uomo, complimenti, ottima composizione ed idea.
Ciao

Excellent shot of the gulls with perfect choice of shutter speed, as I don't detect any blur of the wings. The birds on their own would be impressive enough but the inclusion of the man in the shot is a stroke of genius and more then ever brings Hitchcock to mind.

Wow Luka, this is really cool. Hitchcock? You betcha! Fantastic environment for a human shot. This is a surprising image.

A lovely composition with the sky full of birds, and the lens bringing them close to the watcher.
I think it would be even better maybe if levels and curves were adjusted - the photo seems a bit flat to me.
Thanks
Brian

Great capture Luca! Yes, I agree with other members that it reminds me of Hitchcock's "The Birds".. Great composition with the inclusion of the man in front. TFS

Ciao Luca, What an excellent point of view for this impressive "Birds" view. The composition is so marvelously done and the colours are outstanding. Are you sure it's a fisherman, I bet it's Hitchcock himself! Top shot! Sabine

Reminds me of the Hitchkok film 'Birds' .. good timing, composition and clarity.. a little overcast for my choice but then again u cant help it ..

Luca,

This is poetic for me,
the tings all arounds us can be good and sometimes not !
we must lucky for it maybe,but I think another,we must have a good mind and thinks,then most of the good things got take us like the birds here,around You and me,...
The shot well captured and very well and skilfully composed,I like it very much,Luca,
Thanks,

Best

Hey Luca,

I have seen this photo before, and thought I had already commented on it, but obviously not. What I like here is the way the seagulls completely fill the frame, as if the man really is in a world of seagulls. The grey background helps add some atmosphere to the shot. Well done.

Hi Luca,

Splendid framing of the gulls in Essaouira, and I am aware that even if gulls are plenty it is not so easy to get an aesthetic view of them with a good balance. The guy with the red hat is also well placed.
Many thanks - Izzet
