Nice Weather, Jeppe !, a photo from Channel Islands, Other

Photographer's Note

HERE IT IS, JEPPE, YOUR WEATHER-WHALE !

I promised Jeppe a weather-cock, which is a whale this time, found on the island.

Just a detail of a fishermen's country....

Great catch Hanssie. Jeppe must be proud to this one. It is also a biggest so far,... I guess.
Well seen and taken. Sky colour is great.
Really "Big Catch"! ;-)
Cheers, Don.

Perfect use of the rule of thirds, nice colors and lighting and sharp details...Very well done Hans!

Hans ik kan hier allen vertellen dat de foto zeer scherp genomen is, de perfecte hoek en de juiste kleuren, en Jeppe zal zeker te vreden zijn. Mooi detail!

Nice photo Hans. I've seen a lot of different weathercocks but this one is really original, heavy and marine. I never thought that the wind could be able to move a whale.
Composition and shapness perfect. You managed to have the whale perpendicular to your camera. Congratulations

I've done a workshop to clone the roof and a "bit" more changes

It´s an adorable and uncomun detail... no doubt, well seen.

That whale will not loose his orientation! ;)))

Spoony.

Oh hoooo.. This is great. Really great.:)))
A nice gesture from a friend to another friend. Texture of the whale seems amazing.
Well done Hans. Thank you and Jeppe giving us the chance of sharing.

I wouldn't expect to find a whale on a weather cock, a very original one, Hans. There is no way to do the cropping better than this. Excellent.

Simple shot Hans, that sets the whole scene by concentrating on a detail, and has great balance.
Nice shot

Zoiets heb ik nog nooit gezien. Da's wel een heel speciale windvaan. Ik dacht wel dat Jeppe hier blij mee zou zijn (hij niet alleen eigenlijk). Je foto is bovendien goed scherp. Heel goede bijdrage!

Très original ce cachalot girouette.
Le cadrage est parfait avec ce beau ciel bleu.

Very original this cachalot wind vane. Framing is perfect with this beautiful blue sky.
