This image make me think about a song by a Neville Brothers "Bird on a Wire" .

Again a picture from "Camping Marinella", Pesaro.

This effect was achieved by combining a colour image and a black/white image. It's not exactly the result that I wanted, but I hope you like it.

I will show you in WS two different versions ( 1 and 2 ) before the final picture.

Hi Liliana. Good beachscape composition. The colours of the skies and the texture of the sand is ideal. Those seagulls enjoy a good place to live and usually look so healty with lots of seafood and exercise. TFS. Murray.

Hi Liliana
Being myself a bird watcher, I sure love this photo. Good composition and combination. I love the greenish colors of the sea and the waves splashing on the reef.
Veri nice work

Hello Liliana

Beautiful visual
Amazing, wonderful and fantastic!
The colours look natural very..
And the wave action is a nice touch.
Congratulations

Sérgio

Hello Liliana.
Beautiful result I must say. Only when I studied the picture closer, the water and sand are a bit too much sharped.
Maybe thats why there is noise around the wings of the birds aswel.
When you still have the original, its worth to give it another try ?
I wil do a workshop on it, not sure if I get it better.
Best regards from Jan

Buna Liliana,
Poza e fantastica, iar culorile foarte frumoase. Imi place cum se izbesc valurile, pescarusii in zbor, plaja - de fapt totul!
O compozitie reusita. Am mai visat un minut. :) Merci.

Toate cele bune,
Simina

Very nice color and details with an interesting pov. Very appealing The nit point: little nois to see. ( oversharpend?)
