Hi Vicma,
Beautiful capture.I liked POV,sharpness,clear details,harmonious colors,BG,lighting and posed of bird a lot.Very well done!
Thanks for posting.

Hallo Vicma
This is such a tiny bird; I could not let it pass before placing it in my theme "Dainty Birds" where it belongs. It has such delicate features it hard to believe there is a chest filled with lungs, heart and all other organs to let its tiny body function under those feathers. I just wonder where place for a stomach is as well. Is the Creation not wonderful, when you look at these tiny animals? The match stick legs caught my eyes immediately and is very prominent. Thanks for sharing.
Best regards
Anna

Hi Vicma!

It's quite a long moment I have not been in your gallery. Congratulations for the beautiful pictures there! I also like this one here very much. I'm delighted by the simplicity, the richness of the details and the unity of the colour tones. The blurred background highlights the birds beauty at best. All in your picture looks so delicate and the pastel colour tones create a calm and pleasant atmosphere.

Kind regards

Markus

Muy buenas Victor.
Menos mal que fuiste de turismo...... hay que jorobarse, una gran toma la que nos muestras, yo desde mi punto de vista hubiera optado por descentrarla un poco más a la izquierda para dar aire hacia donde mira y en el caso de que hubiera "artefactos" hubiera realizado un pequeño recorte... volviendo al tema que me preguntabasssss frio es poco si vienes te pelas....
Un abrazote.

Hola Vicma,
Excelente claridad en esta captura.
Muy buena la definición, detalles y la pose del ave, como mostrándonos y haciendo gala de sus largas patas.
El fondo tan fuera de foco funciona de maravilla.
Enhorabuena y gracias por compartir la foto.

great sharp capture, greetings Ori

Una lástima que se extinguiera una de las especies.
En cuanto a la foto: chapeau !!
No se las medidas del ave ni la distancia desde la que disparaste pero parece un ave muy pequeña.
Sencillez y limpieza en la composición con un buen encuadre. Los colores del conjunto lo mejor.

Enhorabuena Señor fotógrafo.

Un abrazo desde Lleida: Josep Ignasi.

Hola Vicma.

Miralo que estiradito, el principito valiente le llamaria yo.
La caza mayor que me dices de la foca, la consegui bien cerca de casa como que fue en la casa(Aquariun Finisterrae) de los peces.

Saludos desde Coruña.
