I went down to South Texas to see and photograph some exotic birds. Mourning doves are common where I live, but I took a number of frames of them because they happened by while the light was very good. Here's a portrait of one.

Lovely portrait Doug. Stunning BG and excellent detail and exposure. Just enough head turn to make this image a winner. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Doug, I like everything in your photo except the bottom part of the frame...the dove seems to dangle out of the corner. I'd suggest a crop such as here to give it a wider base to sit on.
Thanks for the repost Daniel. I like it!
Killer image Doug !! Glad you did not pass up this bird !! I like the complementing bg and feel !!! btw excellent crop suggestion Daniel !!!
Very nice portrait, light and complementing BG. I like Daniel's crop suggestion.
Nicely done Doug,
great close up, good details and nice soft pleasing colors...:cool:
