Lake III

Banyoles / Spain

I found funny that all these seagulls that are use to swiming in the watter were posted all untop of boats as if they did not know how to swim, I just croped the image to eliminate any distractive elements since my tele didn't get so far and when I tried to get closer the birds whent flying of. :(

Sorry I delited without whanting the coment of Phil Douglis, the anterior comment was in respons of his message: 'Very whimsical image, Mikel. You have a good sense of humor, and most humor is based on incongruent relationships. This image is dripping with incongruity, literally and figuratively. All those sea birds catching a free ride on these boats. The only problem is, these boats are not going anywhere, so the birds get the short end of the stick in the end. Wonderful!'

The truth is that when I saw the boats floting in the watter and those birds there a smile draw in my face, I found it funny from the beggining pittie that the birds were scared with me trying to make photos of other angles, I wold have liked to see other perspectives and perhaps less cropped.
