Photographer’s Note
I noticed for long time ago that weathervanes could be considered as artworks.
This one very detailed and a bit rusty - looks like a red ruster - telling the other birds to "hit the road". Please add to the theme.

Hello Jeppe! It has been too long since I have seen your photos, my friend.
This is a very fun photo with the contrast of live birds and weather vane rooster. It is a bit "quirky" and I really like it!

Shot with a message!! Its intersting to read your notes after viewng the shot.
This is creativity.
Here comes the powers of the words, its communication. The cock is desgined in such a way it seems to yell....at the top of its voice.
The two birds seem to be indifferent, as in reality...there is no noise from the cock, but the flying crows gie the impression of a marching order.
This is one of the best artworks seen in recent times.
We see such images off and on but neglect it.
You have captured the moment and presented it beautifully.
Well Done Jeppe.

Hi Jeppe,
Very funny shot. Good capture of the "real" birds and the weathercock side by side. Good colors and sharpness.

Hi Jeppe. What a catch you have with the weathervane along with all the birds. It would be hard to ask for a better position of all the birds throughout the shot. It amuses me how your chicken is staring at the two birds right in front of it. Nice shot Jeppe!

Hi Jeppe,
Funny shot with the rooster showing ravens who's the boss. The flying one's support well the idea. There's some JPG compression artefacts around edges.

A good BIG ZOOM one !
I like the situation there, the true birds and the artistic weathercock.
Nice one with colors and a special light.

Hi Jeppe,
After one week of summer in Denmark I notice that the grey clouds are back again. Good windy conditions for one of your favourite themes.
You did train the birds very well to play their roll for this picture :)

Hi Jeppe. A fun and engaging take for your "weathercocks" theme, with a well-found detail to zoom in on. The small bit of rooftop and the weathercock are well placed at the left, and provide a fun ensemble together with the real birds - some of them in flight, others taking a break. Well seen.

Hej Jeppe,
Rigtig godt billede. Det er en meget smuk vejrhane og det er fantastisk at se hvordan fuglene sidder og flyver omkring den! :-) Den grå baggrund, men med også lidt sollys tror jeg, er også fin.
Venlig hilsen,
Lars

Hi Jeppe,
This is really quite catching and humorous...The two birds in flight, the weather-vane, the visage of a pigeon perched on the roof, and the warm soft light with the bricks glowing. I like this very much. Cheers.
John
