"BWTB" - WW Dove Wet

[Gus Hallgren]

Hi Folks:

Another beautiful "Breakfast with the birds" accompanied by a beautiful rain fall, Wow! we love it and had a couple of fresh tomatos from the neighbours vine to enjoy with our toast. The White-winged Dove loving the rain as well. Photo is nearly full frame, other than cropped, resized, tad of curves and one pass of USM I like it.

Comments always welcome and very much appreciated
