The title says all! ;-)

I took this picture while we were walking near Lothe. It is situated along the Hardanger Fjord in the southern part of Norway. We were walking near a church where a lot of young swallows were being feed by their parents. Luckily this one was quite close (5m). I grapped my telelens, and took several pictures of this scene. I liked the impudent attitude of the young bird which you can see great ons this one.

I cropped the original picture.

Enjoy!

very good shot
beautiful composition and details
good background and focus even if a little bit soft

best regards
aleks:)

I laughed immediately when I spotted this because this appears more like one bird screaming at another. (What did you do with the remote...why did you leave the kids alone, or better yet, can't I ever have any peace?)

I love the composition and the details. One nit that would help me spot the tiff immediately is cutting down on the size of the frame by a tad. Right now, that's the first thing that drew my eye. Other than that, I did enjoy it. Too bad the other bird is a bit soft, but you have to catch 'em while you can!

hello florian
very good picture this scéne is very well captured, the framing well made, the colors beautiful, well done

What an amazing shot, Florian! But so characteristic of young towards their parents!

Lovely composition and excellent detail!

It is worth the points for the caption!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Florian,
Good photo with good colours. Nice moment. Very good composition and sharpness.
Regards,
Peter

Hello Florian
This is a great capture. Whilst the focus is a little soft (I did see your note to aleks though and manual focus to be sharp is totally the right way to go although it really does need a tripod to get the best results) the heads of both birds and sharply in focus.
Great Job and TFS
Best Regards
Paul
