Hi everybody,

In this photo I tried to capture a good composition. With the filter 'increase red' the background colours got less and the red stand out.

The photo was taken in the zoo 'Blijdorp'. It was quiet difficult to capture a nice photo. There were many birds wich constandly moved to an other place. A little bit of patience, and this is the result.
I hope you like it and let me know what you think!

Greetings Simone

Well done Simone, what filters you used here? the birds standout from desaturate background a very nice contrasting indeed.

tfs........Buddy

Echt een plaatje Simone.

Dat gebleekte hout doet het fantastisch als achtergrond voor de vogels en de lijnen met reflectie maken het helemaal kompleet.
Voor het speelse nog wat fraai hoog gras. Het was het even wachten waard!

A sweet shot Simone, with elegant lines and reflection.
Love the color contrast with the birds, and the bit of tall grass on the right.
Well seen and composed.

Haha... now I can see the reflection photo's where Alex eas talking about!!
Beautiful, Simoon!! You made a great mood with those colours and the red accents!!
Great reflection!

Well done!
ps. And a happy birthday today!!! :)

Hallo Simone. Marry Christmas (alvast voor volgend jaar, haha)
Mooie foto van gemaakt, al denk ik dat het extra rood maken overbodig was.
De compositie is 'Very Good'. Goede scherpte van de planken, maar waardoor de vogels wat minder scherp er uit komen.
Ik gebruik meestal 'spotmeeting'. Dus half ingedrukt op de vogel en dan de compositie bepalen.
Met een kleine opening, vanaf F8, had alles scherp genoeg geweest.
Groeten van Jan

Good work with interesting POV and beautiful reflections!

Hi Simone,

Hi Simone,

you succeeded in your intention to capture a good composition.
Even more, I think it is excellent one.
Slightly desaturated tones of green create wonderful surrounding canvas for red birds.
They are the centre of attention in otherwise sharp and clear ambient.
Harmonic contrast, excellent result.

My best,
Jeri

Your patience paid off:) This composition works beautifully, framing the birds nicely and combining all the visual elements together well. I like the sheen of the water surface and the reflections, surrounded by the greenery and the texture of the building. The reds of the birds pop out from the image for eye-catching attention. Well done!

Hi Simone
Very nice composition,lovely colours ,excellent sharpnes and nice reflection.

Ah .. I like the look and the composition!

Hello Simone!
It's very impressive shot! I like this redness against dark background.
Regards, Ewa

Hi Simone - Great capture, it just shows that patience pays dividends. The composition and the bright red for the birds is spot on.
Will

Amazing effect here - and beautiful composition, the birds and the opening through which they have walked are so well placed in the frame. Great use of negative space and great emphasis of the weatherboards' repeating pattern via their reflection.

A slightly blown-out area on the upper of the two birds, a little more post work might have improved that?

Rew

Super picture .Nice details and good colors .
