Coincido con el que me precede. ¿Donde estabas para tomar la foto?. Buen documento, y bien tratado. Fondo movido con ave nítida. Muy buena

@Yvonne Simons: I was on the top of the reservoir, 250 m. high. Many vultures passed around.

Paco, je suis désolée, mon traducteur "en barre-d'outil" me joue des tours (c'est un nul en plus !)

Superbe image, ses ailes déployées, planant au-dessus de ce beau rocher, peut-être a-t-il aperçu une proie!

Nice catch on the fly! Built for speed! The background had a lot to its movement. Sweet!
Deseo el mejor del dia para te, Paco.

Il est si majestueux les ailes déployées, figé dans son vol gracieux. . Son envergure est impressionnante.

Es extraordinario el efecto de contraste y dramatismo que los filtros rojos dan al B/N. Perfecta, Paco.

excellent capture -- what a view this bird must have -- softly floating on the winds!! i envy what his eye can see and how pleasant it must feel to be so light!!! wonderful!
