Increíble captura, Zeev! Me gusta cómo captaste el ave con las alas extendidas para el atterizaje (o será 'ovejizaje'? :) Sin tu explicación no sé si los hubiera identificado como ovejas!
Como siempre, gracias por tus comentarios!

Dear Zeev,

the perspective is really fantastic with the stones in the foreground. you freezed the dynamics here very well. Personally, I don't like the framing too much, but this is really a personal thing ;-)

best wishes,

Thilo

Robert Gaither Robert Gaither   {K:34128} 4/8/2005
I thought the bird was landing on clomps of hay or something until you said sheep. Nice low angle and capture. Maybe the bird needs a free ride. I guess they have bugs but usually the smaller birds land on animals for that. Excellent photograph.

?Me dejas ponerte una pega?... Hasta que no he visto el comentario no he identificado que fuesen ovejas. Me parecían montones de algas o algo así. Debería verse al menos la cabeza de de una oveja.

Al repasar otros comentarios veo que te dicen lo mismo. Probablemente tu no te has dado cuenta porque sabías desde el principio que eran ovejas

Hi Zeev, How're you? It's been a while, but I'm glad I'm back! I like the upward angle in this one, and the DOF, blurring the grass in the foreground adds a nice reference to the perspective. Nice shot; the blue sky is a fabulous background for the bird (stork?) I'm curious what the two white and black triangles just right of the bird are, they seem to be a bit out of place...

Cheers,

Hugo

Interesting view indeed Zeev. I viewed the image and thought what a very opportune shot. Then I read the about and realised how opportune it really was. What were you doing to be surrounded by sheep like that?

What a strange image in many senses.

To begin with I thought they were rocks on a small hill with the bird at the top against a blue sky..

Then..... I thought they were rocks next to a blues sea, with the bird at the bottom!

And then..... I actually read the About and suddenly realised they were sheep.

An amazing picture with the emphasis on "maze".
