Wings of Coto Doñana:

The birds of Coto Doñana are really something of spectacular.
Almost half of the european birds speices (one hundred stantial and the same migrants) for a global summ of six milions on speicemens, pass trough this area every year: 70.000 oche selvatiche, pratically all the speices of european ducks (150.000 - 200.000 speicemens), some ten thousands of herons of every speice, thousand of rapaci, rare too, and much other. These the images of some winged inhabitants of this magnificent national park.
 
Coto Doñana - June 2009:

In the month of June I had a trip in the wonderful National park of Coto Doñana in the south side of Spain.
This National Park shows an exceptional nature because represents a bridge between Africa and Europa. In fact, it presents the half of european birds species and extraordinary endemisms like the spanish Linx, the Camaleon, the Azure-winged magpie and exceptional concentrations of birds.
Here is the tales of this trip and some advice to go.
 
Detail in captivity:

Sometime, we have to use some strange opportinity to realize images, differently very hard to be captured . For instance, is the case of these portraits realized in the Oceanographic Museum of Valencia, Spain, in the City of Science. Here is a very large aviary with birds of this lands. Naturally the images haven't a clear naturalistic value but they are really intresting by documentaristic side (for instance, for the database of Latina Province that I have to expand). Among the other they are really nice to see.
 
Panoramic images :

I've opened a new section of panoramic images in the lanscapes gallery:
These images are realized by the union of different shots (until 7-10) and their fusion in post production. In this way we can rapresent large arches of visible horizon without distortion introduced by fish-eye lens.
Have a nice visitation.
 
Fotografie panoramiche:

Ho inaugurato una nuova sezione di fotografie panoramiche nella galleria paesaggi:
Le immagini sono realizzate mediante la fusione di fotografie (fino a 7-10) e la loro unione in postproduzione. In questo modi si riesce a rappresentare archi di orizzonte amplissimi senza la distorzione introdotta dai fish-eye.
Buona visione.
