My friends know that my favorite bird photography area near Zonguldak is Sazköy. Up to now more than 100 bird species were determined there by us. Until now I uploaded 30 photo from Sazköy. Black-winged Stilt was one of my dream bird to photograph. Las week I firs saw in in Bolu and yesterday I saw it in Sazköy. Unfrtunately light condition was not good, so this photo may be not good enough. However I liked the movoment of water here and want to share with you.

Hello Mustafa,

Superb composition. Excellent POV, DOF and sharpness. The wave breaking on the sand is great. Excellent natural colours.
Cheers,
Mariki

Mustafa merhaba , kuş çok net ve güzel , dalga da ayrı bir renk katmış , eline sağlık .

Hi Mustafa

OMG...what a little bird on top of those long legs! I love him. It is almost like you have captured him dancing on the water.

Well done
Cheers

Soft exposure with excellent shuttle speed. Well captured details, well can not have both slow moving wave and details at once i guess.

Sevgili Mustafa, yine güzel bir enstantane! Harika! Uzunbacağın güzelliği haricinde sudaki detaylar mükemmel. Eline sağlık!

Ps. bugün bir Motacilla alba görüntüledim:)

Hello Mustafa,

This photo certainly is good enough, in fact it's a very beautiful one.
Although you write that light curcomstances were not the best, I'm sure that they were great for these kind of images.
The small wave running towards the lovely long legged Stilt, the clarity and the color contrast are wonderful.
Excellent composition and exposure.
Very well done. TFS!!!

Warm regards, Harry

Hola Mustafa.
Bella foto, muy hermosa la pose de esta especie de ave en busca de su alimento. El color del plumaje y patas lucen exelentemente, asi como tambien las olas del agua.
Un Saludo Mi buen amigo.
