[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the nature wakes up little by little
Great Cormorants/Phalacrocorax carbo,
they fly above still indolentes Dalmatian Pelicans/Pelecanus crispus,
from early it begins the fishing,
they will change places,for food reasons,depending on where they find the big flocks of fishes,
the photograph was pulled early the morning,
it was fascinating you see the flocks passing the one behind the other!

thank you for your good and important criticisms

have a nice day

Hi Nasos!

You present us a beautiful and romantic picture. It's a classical, yet very pleasant and so well realized sunset atmosphere. I like the symbol that you link with the picture and I appreciate your narrative notes.

Kind regards

Markus

Relajante y real. Un bonito documento.

μια ματιά όνειρο, υπέροχα θερμά χρώματα με τις silhouettes να γράφουν υπέροχα στην σύνθεση, βγάζει κάτι ποιητικό, ίσως επειδή μου θυμίζει μια σκηνή από το ντοκιμαντέρ ‘’ταξιδιάρικα πουλιά’’
πολύ καλή φίλε μου, εύγε!

Hello Nasos, wonderful shot with nice colours and composition.

The position of the sun in the golden mean and the curve on the sky created by the birds is superb here. Excellent picture

Hi Nasos. You picture of the sunrise is so calm looking. I like very much the way you have captured the birds flying with the new sun behind them. The golden glow refecting in the sea. Which looks the start of a nice day. well done TFS.

Hi Nasos,
really a very beautiful nd picturesque shot of the flock. The yellowish sky is very attractive and dramatic to give a good impact and effect to the shot.Beautifully composed shot of nature.

Foozi

Hi Nasos,
wonderful natural scene, full of movement and beautiful colours, Horizon is a little wonky, but thats a minor thing really. The composition is good too.

Hi Nasos,
That's a beautiful scenery. Without reading your notes, I'd assume it to be the afternoon sun. Lovely colors and very good timing.
I agree with Paul about the horizon line- a small detail that can always be corrected.
TFS
All the best,
Selen

Hi Nasos,

Good sunset scenery with romantic mood!
You are capturing well the trace of flight of crowd of birds. And, the light that reflects to lake draws out goof effects in the whole, I think.

Best regards,
