[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
The seagulls were barely moving against the gale force wind and like floating forever, they seemed much more at ease than me who had to struggle not to be carried away and trying not to move while taking a photo of their show on top of my head... Almost immobile and silent, too, not calling like they usually do, a sort of exctatic dance ; the wind, on the other hand, was whistling violently !

For those curious about military architecture, a glance through the old door of the bastion against which I was leaning.

Ciao Catherine!!
che bell'effetto quasi grafico questi gabbiani che volano tutti nella stessa direzione! In questo caso il cielo grigio è un ottimo sfondo.
Bella foto, complimenti!!

Sur le forum, il est beaucoup question de mouettes et autres volatiles! Sont-ils à leur place sur TE?!
Grande question existentielle! Mais moi j'adore ce ciel peuplé d'anges noirs! Merci beaucoup Catherine pour cette très belle photo! Admiration x2! alain

Bonsoir, Catherine.
Les oiseaux en photographie m'attirent beaucoup ces derniers temps.
Mais ce qui m'attire aussi (en ce moment précis de l'année), c'est la blancheur et la luminosité : cela vient peut-être du fait qu'il fait gris et qu'il n'y a pas de neige à Paris (comme d'ailleurs dans la plupart des villes de l'Europe). Je t'ai donc fait un WS qui n'est que ma version de ta photo.
Amitiés, Grazyna.

Hi CAtherine,
A very nice view of these seagulls, I like a lot.
ciao

Hi Cath,
You've made my day! This is the shot of the day here in TE. Absolutely brilliant! I know you don't like nature shots, but after seeing this I am not so sure :)
Keep up the good work.
Regards,
Shaeri

Belle photo de cet ensemble d' oiseau en vol, ce coin de bâtiments n' est pas mal pensé, cela meuble le fait que ce groupe d( oiuseaux et ce ciel sont seul dans le ciel, bien sur ce n' est que mon avis de débutant.
Je vous souhaite une bonne et heureuse année 2008, que cette année vous apporte bonheur et prospérité.
Amitiés Thomas
Je reviens.

i tried the same thing yesterday but could not succeed due to some irrelevant problems. it is always a good idea to look high up into the sky. you never know what kind of a surprize you'll see...

Salut Cath
Les mouettes en silhouette, forment des motifs bien sympathiques sur le ciel couvert et me donnent l'impression qu'elles ont été dessinées. Malgré le vent qui te bousculait, la netteté est bonne.
Amicalement
Marilyn

Hello Catherine

Good point of view to catch this flock in the sky, and to catch an excellent composition, which pleasantly resists with the forms and silhouettes. Very opportune your taking, congratulations

Assez étonnant... On dirait presque que c'est artificiel... Je me dis que ce doit être assez tripant de voir cela de ses yeux... Très bien vu. Poétique, dans un certain sens.

Very good title for this flight of birds. Great pov and composition from this low angle.

With birds directly over head, it is such a fine view. Well done. TFS

Very well "frozen" sky with the seagulls and just a bit of the wall to balance... it is nice that almost all of them are flying in one direction...

Cheers

Dear Cath
Wonderful imagery moreso because of your astute framing with the house in one corner of the frame & the gulls flying in a diagonal. A departure from your usual style, but the result is excellent! Still in TN I presume!
Best Regards
Angshu
