Powerfull shot! Very impressive angle and result! I like the B&W me too! In that kind color will not distract from the X :)

Very interesting shot. I really like the shape, but it's just a bit stark for me. For years I have been interested in learning how to do this, but in color, sort of like a color sketch. So, at the risk of sticking my nose in where it doesn't belong, COULD you do this in color?
Best,
Mike

Great shot Carmela, brilliant timing and I like the blck and white treatment.
Best wishes
Rob :)

This shot caught my eye in the gallery, and upon seeing it larger I can only say wow! Superb timing in catching the movement. The b&w works for me - makes you wonder whether this is a photo or an ink sketch.
Thanks for sharing.....Mark

Bok Carmela

Odlično obrađeno. Drugačijim pristupom slici galeba (od mora galebova na web stranicama) postigla si pun pogodak. GRafički pristup ovoj slici je posve opravdan.
Lijepo, dobro ukomponirano.
Pozdrav Darko

Beautifully done, Carmela. The composition is wonderful and I like the zigzag lines in the water and the bird taking off or landing against all of the white as if it was going to the unknown. Excellent!

Very pure and creative work, dear !!!
I love the delicate surface of water.
Sylvie

Fantastic shot, Carmela! You had to be there at the right moment, but the high key treatment is the secret here. Superb image!

Hello Carmela,
Lovely graphics, superb lines!
Pushing contrast makes this work very well, but I'm pretty sure this is a good photograph in natura too!

fantastic,Carmela
what a wonderful long reflection of wings.
i do think that in b&w it's more effective.
Excelent,tfs!!
Vik

i agree with you on the lack and white. You must have fast hands and good coordination to freeze this bird in flight.

This is really nice. It reminds me of my recent swan photo. How did you achieve the overall white effect. I like it.

Hello Carmela. Wonderful image. Experimental work heavy on creativity, we like it. Thanks for sharing!!!!!
