Really nice composition
Going to school in Perth Amboy NJ, the downtown was surrounded by pigeons. Down here in sunny FL, pigeons hang around the downtown marina, along with the herons, gulls, and pelicans. But I never get tired of watching the pigeons walk. The little head-bob is so darn cute!
People give pigeons a bad rap. They aren’t so bad!
Apparently these pigeons are comfortable with humans. Even though I’m not fond of pigeons, I appreciate this photo– the lines of birds that draw my eyes into the photo, the shadows, even the ideal choice to make this b & w. As always, well done, Keith.
