Bonjour Manuel

Effectivement, c'est un moment magique que tu as vécu. Le soleil couchant est magnifique et les oiseaux qui dansent sont superbes. Le cadrage vertical est bien choisi.

Amicalement

Hello Manuel!
Exceptionally beautiful color combinations. Special lights. The setting sun flying bird special moment. One small criticism: the sharpness as if a very little bit "too would be pulled. "
Sincerely,
Csaba

Hello, Manu,

I think, you have made few photos of this moment, this is the best. I like your idea! Good sharpness, when the bird's wing cuts the sun. Excellent colours! My compliments!

Salut Manuel,

un grand photo ! Bravo. Janos

Charo (51212) 2011-01-11 15:42

Hola Manuel,
Esta vez te has superado, es fácil fotografíar pájaros en vuelo, pero no capturarlos tan cerca y tan bien colocados. Y por si fuera poco con esa bella puesta de sol. Bravísimo!
Un abrazo,
Charo

nikkitta (17070) 2011-01-11 16:45

Hola Manuel

Fantastica composicion con ese luz tan calida del atardecer y el contraste de las siluetas negras de las gaviotas!
Me gusta la forma rectangular q elegiste, ayuda a dar mas enfasis

Feliz Año Nuevo desde Argentina
Maria

PeakXV (245) 2011-01-11 17:37

Hello Manuel:

I love the sky/light in this one. I also like the carefree randomness of the gulls in flight. The winged eclipse of the sun is timely, clever & somehow seals the deal on this photo's greatness. Very well done!

Kind regards,

Derek

jjcordier (79299) 2011-01-11 22:09

Un bien beau moment effectivement avec ces volatiles bien disposés dans l'image et, surtout, ce magnifique ciel de fin de journée aux couleurs splendides.

Wonderful composition with a typical Istanbul skyscape. I also liked your vertical format and framing. Cogratulations, Tolga

vishaal (1042) 2011-01-12 2:27

Hi Manuel, my dear friend, I have No Words for this !
This IS superb ! An excellent composition. The poetic evening, the setting sun, the sea, the sky with dreamy colors, and the seagulls, one of them partially covering the sun.....everything is in perfect place here.
I love evenings and your this photo is one of those beautiful images of the evenings which I like most :-))
What can I say more..........?

Best regards,
Vishal.

carlosmarin (11954) 2011-01-12 5:14

Hola Manuel,
impresionante puesta de sol en Estambul con el vuelo de las gaviotas en primer plano.
Eres un artista de los sunsets.
Me gusta la idea de que una de las gaviotas se superponga al disco solar.
El formato vertical es muy adecuado a la escena.
Buen trabajo.
Un abrazo, Carlos

lilito (3534) 2011-01-12 5:18

mesutilgim (115430) 2011-01-12 9:27

Hi dear Manuel,
I missed this one ! Amazing. I can estimate from where it was taken. Pov, colors and compo is just perfect.
I wished I could find the poems of a famous turkish poet in english, who had wonderfull poems about the sunsets and the seagulls of İstanbul.
TFS and best regards

JCG (35153) 2011-01-12 10:16

Olá Manuel,

A flight of seagulls nicely photographed, it is superb, as much in the colors than by the quality of the image. I like much the romanticism which arises from the image. Very pleasant to look at, thank you Manuel.

With all my friendships, a very good evening, and all my best wishes for the new year,

Jean-Charles

Hi Manuel!

Freedom and self-control seem to be the main message of this photo.
The prime of romance chiefly symbolized by sunset scenes.
A quite good exposure and framing!

Regards,
Athanasios.

danos (110395) 2011-01-13 0:30

Hola Manuel,
extraordinary snapshot with the flying seagulls to create a spectacular synthesis this sunset evening.I like the colour tints of the sky as the calmly and tranquil atmosphere of the scene.Well done.

have a good day,Danos

foozi (7101) 2011-01-13 1:01

Hello Manuel,
very pleasant composition of colours and shadows. I like this simple presentation but its a very effective visual graphic one.
The birds and the sun are really stunning.
very exciting composition fro you.

regards,
Foozi

subhendu_bagchi (26091) 2011-01-13 1:03

Namaste Manuel,
the moment is wonderful indeed. Like the composition with the rule of third. A vast and beautiful sky at top with the silhouetted birds. The semi covered sun by the wings and the colours made the scene romantic. Great work. Tfs.
Wish you all the best for future.
Subhendu

hardyuno (4650) 2011-01-13 3:07

Dear Manu,

adramad (62672) 2011-01-13 8:19

Hola Manuel.
Espectacular.... maravillosa y mil adjetivos mas para describir esta preciosa imagen, si ya por si misma, la puesta de sol es preciosa con esta variada gama de colores, las gaviotas son algo sensacional por el dinamismo que dan a la imagen y la belleza añadida.
Me gusta el formato, luz, color, marco todo esta muy logrado. Mis felicitaciones.
Saludos.
Luis.

Waylim (25436) 2011-01-13 10:40

Hi Manuel,
Sure is a wonderful moment and photo too. the scnery itself is beuatiful and the color of the sunset is fantastic, rich in tone and atmosphere. the seagals in flight adds to the depth and enhanced the composition of the extra tall vertical format.

COSTANTINO (93422) 2011-01-13 10:48

Hello

Costantino

s_lush (16602) 2011-01-13 23:05

Hello Manuel,
Although there no architecture or mountains in your beautiful sunset photo, it represents the special seaside atmosphere of Turkey perfectly. This highly aesthetic and excellent on its light and colors picture is one of the best among those that I have ever seen on TE. A really brilliant job!
Best regards,
Sergiy

josepmarin (59383) 2011-01-13 23:59

Hola Don Manuel,
las gaviotas, como los gatos, son la fauna (además de los turistas) más extendida por la ciudad de Estambul.
Y tú aprovechaste eso para captar bellas imágenes, como ésta, en la que has combinado las siluetas de estas aves con una espléndida puesta de sol, con toda la magia de un momento único que aunque se repite todos los días, nunca es igual.
El recorte estilizado vertical centra nuestra atención en lo que nos quieres mostrar.
Un bello trabajo, amigo mío.
Un abrazo,
Josep
