Excellent, so close, have you learnt to fly too?
Picturit: Yes I have....I was standing high on the ferry to the island of Texel,
have a great weekend, Astrid
The bird in the background will surely miss his friends once they soar away, but he looks quite capable of spreading his own wings and taking off while he waits for his friends to return.
Picturit: I think these kind of birds are very strong, they will not get blown away that easy.....
Astrid
Gorgeous shot.
Picturit: Thank you so much, Laura,
Have a great weekend Astrid
Awwwwwww. How very sweet and kind of you, dear Astrid. You can be sure that your 2 dear friends will totally enjoy every second while they are gone. Your vacation best wishes mean the world. Ontzettend bedankt!
Picturit: Ontzettend graag gedaan, een geweldige vakantie voor Donica en jou, geniet ervan, it is all my pleasure, have a geat time......I know you will
Astrid.
You are showing off your skill now, Astrid, and why not. A bird caught in its graceful pose, enhanced by the next one turning just like planes landing at a busy airport.
Picturit:
Have a great weekend. Astrid.
Wow! Impressive capture of the flight, Astrid. The detail is so good that if the gull took curtain ring, we could read its data!
Picturit: José-Angel, Thank you so much for your kind words, I was quite happy with this one too,
Have a great weekend, Astrid
I agree completely with your best wishes for your dear friends- een beeld van vrijheid, ontwaken en vertrek naar nieuwe oevers," And my soul spread /Wide its wings, flew through...." (Eichendorff) - while we are waiting for their happy return and cameras full of pics!
Picturit: Philine, dank je wel voor deze mooie woorden, jij weet als geen ander hoe we dit allemaal bedoelen en ook echt menen.....ik hoop een veilige reis en een behouden thuiskomst,
een heel goed weekend, ik ben nu een weekend op Texel... Astrid.
Not only the 30th but one of your best also. Birds are not asy to take, you did well.
Picturit: Jeroen, thank you so much for your kind words, when I saw this picture on the computer, I was really surprised too.
Have a great weekend, Astrid.
Excellent shot Astrid. They both seem to wave "good bye" to each other. A great eye you have!

Astrid.
Even the seagulls are learnig to fly in a stack waiting for permission to land ;o)
Picturit: Mike, it was very crowded with these birds, and we don't want any accidents, don't we, so they have to take turns for the landing.......
Have a great weekend, the sun is out here........... Astrid
AWESOME
Picturit: Thank you both, I am pleased you like it, have a great weekend,
Astrid

Very nice sentiments Astrid and a great picture, better the two birds than just one. Well taken.
Picturit: They are very dear friends, so why not, thank you for your kind words...
Astrid.
What a shot! Fabulous.
Yes, thank goodness they're not flying American Airlines, although they may be back to schedule now. This is a winner, Astrid. And wow, look at all that Dutch Ginnie is spouting.
Picturit: Me too Ruth, I think they still are off schedule, you would be surprised how many words Ginnie already knows, in Dutch
Astrid.

At first i found the bird in the background disturbing, but when you look close it looks like it looking toward the other bird. Nice touch.

Astrid

Picturit: Thank you much for your kind words, indeed it was NOT easy to get it like this, I was standing high on the ferry.
Astrid.
Madammeke een nieuwe camera - zei hij groen van jaloezie.
Mooie vogels en goed in groep houding - G voorop en D achter en effe minder duidelik zoals wij er aan gewend is.
Picturit: Jazeker, bij G zal je niet gauw een onscherpe foto te zien krijgen
Astrid.
I like gull pics, Astrid, and this is a wonderful example of why.
Picturit: Ray, words like that from you, mean a lot to me, thank you so much.
Astrid.
For me....a very spectacular shot. Likey for me!!!! Can't believe I missed it!
Picturit: It is almost impossible to see all the pictures, sometimes I so miss some too....
Thank you so much for your kind words. Astrid. |
