I would want to find itself in my beloved place,to the lake Kerkini,
it is not feasible, I present therefore a subject that I photographed last year such season.

The White Stork/Ciconia ciconia,in Greek pelargos.

It is the bird of good luck, I wish it brings to you good luck in your photographic campaigns.

thank you for your visit in my collection

have a nice day

Hello Nasos !
The White Stok is the symbol of Alsace, the frech region where I live - and I love this bird. You have captured this one in a fantastic pose, with excellent details and natural colors. The blue sky makes a wonderful BG, too. Very well done !
Valérie.

Hallo Nasos
Great shot of this White Stork in the air. The display of its wide spreaded wingspan is beautiful and shown well against the blue sky as your background. Love the very pointed and slender beak and the layers of black and white feathers. A pretty in flight shot, captured with skill. I was just wondering where is the baby it is delivering? Best regards and thanks for sharing.

Hello Nasos,
Beautiful photo in very good sharpness and details. Difficult light circumstances, but the natural colours are very nice. Good POV, timing and pose.

Thanks Nasos and hope this also brings you good luck. Flight shots are always difficult , but you have done well here. I like the motion blur of the wings

Hello Nasos,
I missed this one!
An excellent capture of a White Stork in flight
+: Sharpness, DOF, pose, POV, BG, colours and lighting.
-: Maybe the composiition is a bit too central.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan
