A fine composition of these majestic birds. They are nicely spread out to produce a pleasing well balanced image. The birds stand out well from their background. Season's Greetings!

Hi Ike,
The branches are framing well the birds. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the cormorants. The morning light is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Dobar dan.
Interesantan pogled i trenutak, dobar tekst ...
Lepo pokazano, dobar kontrast, lepe boje, lepo uhvacen trenutak.
Lepi kormorani i zelene grane drveta.
Ptice koju su uvek gladne, opasne za riblji fond reka i jezera.
Zelim vam lepo popodne, sve najbolje.
Paja.

Ike, these black cormorants are perched on the eucalyptus growing on the Yarkon river bank. They re drying their feathers. They re skilled fishers and dive easily to catch the fish. Fine colors, good sharpness, interesting photo note, regards.
