birds and fish Photo

Photographer’s Note

Birds like fish and so they like fishermen and fishing ships.
This is quite a number of seagulls and sterns following the fishing boat.
Taken from the beach of the Koog on Texel, the biggest of the Islands in the Waddenzee.

Hello Gerrit,
A very moody atmosphere to this composition. The foreground swell is well captured and creates a great sense of dynamism. The ship is nicely placed and the seagulls are an interesting bonus.

Hallo Gerrit,

Ik vind dit een hele mooie foto. Vooral het licht op de golf en het water is prachtig. De boot in de verte is hier ook mooi meegenomen en al die vogels maken het af. Knap werk!

Groetjes,
Ann

Bonjour, cher ami Gerrit,
La mer est un espace de rigueur et de liberté.
La beauté de l'image est patente. Ces oiseaux sont toujours à la recherche de nourriture. Une belle composition parfaitement gérée.
Une image que l'on admire.
Amitiés.

Hi Gerrit,
A wonderful shot, excellent composition and lovely treatment to get the most out of the image, the foreground wave with the white water adds a lot of dimension to the shot.
It's good to see sea birds from all over the world recognize a free meal.
Have a great weekend.
Regards
Peter

Hallo Gerrit,
Toen ik de thumbnail zag dacht ik even dat je met deze foto aan het photoshoppen was geweest en de surfers door meeuwen had vervangen en die lelijke rand er afgehaald had. Het is een wonder dat de TOS dit “elaborated frame” heeft laten staan.

Groet uit Sussex

Definitely at home, Gerrit. The picture is superb when open. I like it so much. Three symbols of dynamic: water, birds, boat.

Friendly,

Hello Gerrit
Not an easy picture to take, I guess in backlight, but you've caught the waves well and the trawler in silhouette with the flying gulls. Love the colour of the sea...well done!

Bonsoir Gerrit
Intéressante silhouette du chalutier qui traine les mouettes dans son sillage.
Belle composition avec les vagues en avant-plan.
Amitiés

Hi Gerrit!
A bit oversharpened ,but a nice composition with the light at the foaming wave in the foreground.The many birds behind the fishingboat are nice details.
