    Hello everyone. Well I know these are not the most facinating birds and are pretty much common everwhere, but I really like the setting on this. Taken right before sundown. So I had really great light and it was standing at the edge of a step with the lake as a background.
    C&C welcomed and encouraged.

    Nothing wrong with Pigeons Robert. Stunning light, and you have captured a great HA. Good to see the different layers of feathers, and I like the softer colour of the BG.

    Hi Robert,
    You should be proud of this one. The light is wonderful. You have exposed perfectly and I love the tack sharp eye and the iridescence on the neck. Gail

    It's nice to see a pigeon picture for a change. We don't see enough of them. Love the angle land light here. Nice details in your feathers.
