It's a wonderful comment, thank youAbdallah. Yes it felt a little like magic to me, too - conjured up from a morning off school with my students, Friday picnic in the park. The birds were definitely accomplices in it all ;)

Fantastic. It's always best when we see black AND white in the same photo. If one destroys the other, the photo looks too dark or too bright, depending on the winner.

The winner in this case is certainly the New Zealand-curious Panoramio audience. This is a marvellous photo. Yellow star and "best of", for sure.

What a cool comment, whoelius and a big huge thanks for the yellow star! I've never really understood what makes a B and W image work, but this one immediately struck me as one that would look better that way, than in colour. A lucky moment in nature.....

Thank you, Jacqui

These birds have something so joyful and comforting, as sent from heaven, and at the same time the shadows are somehow scary. Anyhow you got a wonderful moment!

Kind regards, Christiane

Jacqui! I always enjoy to browse your gallery, so free pics, so free approach (I can't be!) this one is beautiful, it is about freedom too - I think. y*!! vv

sadogashima, on November 25, said:

You can, and you are! So many of your children one, and street photographs are so free and spontaneous, vv. Sometimes we get lucky, too, and this was such a day ;) Thank you for your Y*!

Warm greetings to you, and Pest,

Jacqui
