J’espere que je pourrai voir tes photos de nuit :). Tu devrais venir en Croatie, Marc. Cet ete j’irai sur l’ile Dugi Otok qui a une une forme merveilleuse vue du ciel.
Ah la Croatie me tente beaucoup, tout ce que j’ai pu voir dessus m’a beaucoup plu, les paysages sont restés très naturels et le littoral est magnifique
et pour les photos de nuit c’est trop compliqué mais j’en ai publiée une juste au coucher de soleil https://marcbourbonaerophoto.wordpress.com/2013/09/17/vol-de-nuit/
This is a challenge I wouldn’t contemplate attempting. My motion shots turn into blur. However, yours has the lovely sharpness of a captured moment: the lifted wings, the intent look, the water held in splash, and then the slightly rippled water behind. You also know how to crop to perfection.
(I’m very envious of your multilinguality, by the way. The closest I get is a trilingual daughter, and bilingual grandchildren.)
Wonderful capture, Paula. I love the take offs and landings of the larger birds (swans, pelicans and geese). Take off like they’re walking on water and land like they’re water skiing.
I took a long break Paula because I ran out of time each day. The course I was following is now completed and I am now rested and ready to blog again 🙂
Lost in Translation 
Definitely a sense of motion here, Paula. Well done.
