other planets

other planets.. other worlds..
maybe far.. much probably close..
around.. beside.. over us...
seagulls that flying in unknown and wonderful spaces..
our galaxy...
under..
our problems.. our poor lifes..
...

looking at seagulls of Capo Bonifacio..
in an entire afternoon.. with wind.. with silence..
you can understand.. what is happiness..
to chase.. to play.. to run.. to fly...
simply.. without thoughts...
simplicity.. our dear friend... forgotten..

another world... another life.. another way..
it’s possible!!

Einaudi is my mood..

Comments and critics are welcome


Ps: i dont know exactly.. it’s an experiment in PP
I think the strong PP of the sky increasing the atmosfere!!
See the passages in WS1 and WS2..
Thanks...

Hi Marco,
Fantastic PP work, really nicely done with excellent effects. TFS Julie

Uff! Seconda! :-)
Ma prima ad ascoltare questo già ben conosciuto Ludovico Einaudi!
Stavolta i complimenti non solo per la foto, ma anche per la composizione in youtube!

Hi Marco...this is a beautiful shot...wonderfully composed with great colors and details.

Roger

Hi Marco,

Your photography talent is always a joy to view. I am listening to Ludovico Einaudi as I write this note. How perfect for this peaceful image of the seagulls. I find it interesting you have two gulls and the song has two primary instruments complimenting each other nicely. I find the sea to be very uplifting and healing though I live several hours away.

The photo itself is wonderful and very thought provoking. The gulls are very sharp flying together. The blue of the sky is brilliant. It almost looks as if they are flying through the auora borialis (Northern Lights)

thanks for sharing your photo and the music. Lisa

Excellent composition Marco! Excellent work here!
Well done.
Thank You

Hi Marco,
in our imagination, other worlds are nearly our neighbor.
just a little jump needs to move those.
in the realistic image like this your picture, we can change the possibilities to get the ticket to jump over to other realisitc world, it may be one surrealistic world in all meanings.
thank you for your invitation to guide other planet.

Hi Marco,

The main posting in itself was already quite nice. Some interesting heavy post processing you have done here. Though the background is quite noisy. Well, I understand. If you'd get rid of the noise, the background would become pretty soft. See the workshop ;-).

Wonderful Marco, with the immediately recognisable atmosphere you seem to be able to create in all your pictures.

And don't worry, the simple things of life are being enjoyed be more people and I think even more so when you focus through your camera, more beauty surrounding you will catch your eye.
Very enjoyable to sit here on Capo Bonifacio and enjoy the playfulness of the seagulls.

Hi Marco
Hang on to the recipe you used to create this image, as its beautiful with a moody atmosphere. I love the hint of the cloud almost telling us that there is some kind of light at the end of the tunnel.
Super.

ciao Marto,

bellissimo il contrasto col cielo e i dettagli colorati dei gabbiani. é una composizione splendida, solo un pò di noise che però non disturba.
Dunque, bravissimo Marto.
Ormai ogni foto è sempre un progresso, davvero bravo.
Mo dobbiamo fa la mostra, Marto io la voglio organizzare davvero, dovremmo pensare a qualche tema da sviluppare, sarà estremamente divertente...

vabbè

a presto

Caro Marco,
sono incantata di fronte a questo magnifico spiegare d'ali... solenne... spettacolare ed emozionante spiccata sotto un cielo che sembra carico di energia... pura entalpia... un risveglio dei sensi accompagnati magnificamente dal suono di Einaudi!
Grazie e complimenti!

Hi Marco
Wonderful creation and good PP work. The sea gulls are well lighted and I love that deep blue sky. I also liked your WS2 for the light in the upper right corner. May I tell you that on your WS1, there are some dust spots on the captor of your camera.
Nicely done

Excellent Capture. Superb light.

Ciao Marco :o)

I like the whole composition Marco, but IMO i find the sky too much worked, too dark, not enough delicate. Nevertheless the birds are very well captured, bravo !
It would be nice if you explain in your note how you manage with Photoshop to obtain your compositions in general ;o) You are a pro and reach the top on each of your shot, so I think I can learn much from you.
Ciao Marco
Marylou

They really pop out in this well done PP work. Text and picture go well together. Should collect and self-publish in a book maybe?

Nice PP work, Marco. Great contrast. Very imaginative:)

Very nice capture of this amazing image with great colours and well composed.

Hello Marco,
Fine light, and the birds are well placed in relation to each others!
A lovely composition, and the yellow details in the birds stand out well and contrast the blue sky...
Good details in the plumage!

Your PP work creates a great mood, Marco. And it sure emphasises the beauty of the gulls; the ws "original" proves that it is high time to clean your sensor, my friend ;o). Which might just well be the reason why you darkened the sky so much LOL.
Anyway, TFS. Very moody work.

Beautifull Marco!
