100 Birds, 100 Shots, a photo from Khuzestan, West

Photographer's Note

After 170 days, I’m posting my 100th shot that I took it a few seconds after my first post in TE.
***
During those days,and now,TE became a part of my life.I saw the world more than before through your eyes,your photographs,which was like a wings for me,for flying towards your lands.
***
The most of important thing was for me a friendly communication here,...sometimes I wrote serious,..sometimes with humor,..laughing,poetical,soulless,soft,hard,short,long,...and with a bad grammar and simple words...only I wanted to make a friendly relationship.

Now,I have many great friends in the world,all.
***
Still,I’m Amateur,but learnt a lot of useful things from you.

Thanks all of you dear friends.
Sincerely
Mohammad

Did you count them? Great shot, good idea to include the bridge in the lower frame. I'm not sure about the bit of tree at the top though, not really enough of it to work as a compo device.

DonQ (2625) 2004-09-08 3:45

You have seen a movie Birds of Hitchkok certainly. ;-)
Great shot wit all those blue tones Mohammad. Very nice detail of the bridge and also fine framework here. You turn finally to blue. ;-)
Very well done. Bravo.
Cheers, Don.

efimoore (2126) 2004-09-08 14:43

The birds hovering over the bridge, and the dramatic cloudy sky makes this composition abstract and unique.
As for your note, as a relatively new member to TE, I recognize that your active participation with sincere notes and critiques makes this virtual place special.
Seeing that you found here great friends, learned about the world and improved your photographic skills is encouraging to me to continue and participate.

nwoehnl (122) 2004-09-08 14:47

Happy 100th, Mohammad. Very creative framing with the bridge at the bottom of the frame, and looking up into the sky filled with bird silhouettes that yield an excellent graphical effect. Well done. Good to have you as such an enthusiastic TE member, and keep on bringing the next 100.

Hanssie (11022) 2004-09-08 15:05

Congratulations Mohammad ! !
Superb picture with adding of the bridge and the tree, all in blue tones, very, very nice and very different from you.
Oh.....there are 98 birds....

dkeus31 (27739) 2004-09-08 15:24

Congrats to the 100'th.
Nice subject and sky, closed by bridge and tree.

papagolf21 (152605) 2004-09-08 16:50

Cher Mohammad,
Merci pour cette note très gentille ! La photographie est splendide avec ce camaïeu de bleu. Est-ce un rassemblement d'oiseaux migrateurs ?
Une fort belle réussite Mohammad.
Dear Mohammad,
Thank you for this very kind note! The photography is magnificent with this cameo of blue. Is it an assembling of migratory birds?
A very beautiful success Mohammad.

Dear Mohammad
Congratulation with the 100 fine photos you shared with us - You got very dramatic effect on this capture with the dark sky and the many birds - the bridge gives a connection the earth and a fine graphics at same time - Looking forward to the next 100 (I take a TE break now - too much work :-(
Regards Jeppe

pamastro (7296) 2004-09-09 2:01

Nice return to the bridge for your 100th entry. The sky has a beautiful color and light. And the birds are very impressive in the sky. I can hear the sounds they are making. So many of them flying around in circles high above the bridge. And the tree branch helps frame the shot nicely. But it really are the birds that make this. Very impressive gathering here. Nicely spotted and photographed.

ale (1819) 2004-09-09 4:41

Very impressive Mohammad!
Congratulation for your 100th photo!

Oldtree (2457) 2004-09-10 15:14

These birds on your photo are probably the spirits of all the members which have come to congratulate you to your 100th photo.

Hmm.. at least if you would have made this photo during the last days.

Anyway from Amateur to Amateur: Well chosen photo for your 100th pic and thanks for your kind words (even though I'm just a member since 2 month).

cmartos (242) 2004-09-11 2:45

Great note, looks like youve gone full circle for your 100th shot as you say. I actually prefer this version, although theres not as much detail in this one, its simple and the birds are great.

Colours and POv are also very good, I woudlnt change anything about this shot. Well done!

jbweasle (9393) 2005-11-15 12:08

Mohammad, I've just seen this on the front page. It said:
100 Birds, 100 Shots (100) which seemed very fitting.

Congratulations on a wonderful shot. It probably seems so long since those "early" days.

PS It already said 102 when I looked at the photo :-)

magnier (988) 2005-11-24 16:03

Fantastics colours ! i feel cold when I look at them ! I enjoy pond position... very well captured !
