battlements dippers sent on August 06, 2018 (18:35) by Ruggero Casse. 13 comments, 743 views.

at 234mm, 1/2000 f/6.3, ISO 800, tripod.

Un amico pescatore, risalendo un bel rio dalle acque fresche, aveva notato il movimento dei merli. Conoscendo la mia passione per la fotografia pensò di raccontarmi di quei voli radenti, di quegli schiamazzi allegri e dei becchi pieni; "... credo abbiano un nido da quelle parti! Tra la prima e la seconda cascata!" Grazie alla dritta, non fu particolarmente difficile risalire alla posizione del nido; proprio ai margini di un salto dove la corrente si ingrossava e tra mille schizzi rombava assordante... Un luogo nascosto e per questo magico. Fantasticavo, lo ammetto, allettato dall'idea di poter sbirciare nelle faccende di quelle delicate quanto indaffarate creature. Poi, improvvisamente, la neve, cumuli enormi di neve, ammassati da valanghe e nevai, prese a sciogliersi. Da lassù: dal Clo Valun e dalla Colletta, ma anche dal Passou du Glas, rivoli infiniti si riversavano nel tortuoso letto del rio gonfiandone la portata e trasformandolo in un fiume di caffèllatte... Inutile dire che del nido non restarono nemmeno più le rocce... Non ho fatto in tempo di approfondire la conoscenza con quei due simpatici merli ma pare che continuino ad animare quella parte del rio protetta tra le due cascate.

Thanks Pierpaolo for the visit and the words; I proposed the NL because I realized that there was actually not much color in the context of the water jump and then the battlements, seen during their fast and frantic movements, they simply fill black and white. The contrast of the tones has brought out the three-dimensionality of the water that is the thing that, personally, strikes me more than anything in the picture, while not distracting the vision of the subject.
A greeting Roger

I first read carefully the text attached to the TU profile that I share in toto. I find myself in every step and I emphasize how often on the forums these aspects are hardly ever considered in the overall evaluation of the image. In this case I find it courageous to propose a B&W version of a shot to avifauna like this, even if the setting in this situation is chromatically quite homogeneous. Very well executed in its typical setting between jumps, waterfalls, mosses and branches. Gorgeous and addictive description attached. Very well Ruggero.
Bye Josh ;-)

Thanks Gios of the beautiful words;
I realize sometimes to be misplaced with my descriptions especially in a photographic scope like this. Many people reminded me that: "The photos are like jokes: if you have to explain it means that they are not beautiful...." And I am very daccorso with all of them!
Fortunately this site has always given voice to all; even to those who, like me, is still trying to pull out a photo that is told by itself and, I do not hide that, I really like to lose a few minutes to tell, to all those who take the trouble to peek And between the lines, those simple as exhilarating feelings that urge me to capture an image. ;-)
