Union Square Pigeons

Congratulations on making it through your first challenge. It's easier from here on. And I'm delighted that you found your first image in San Francisco.

I expect that if you had been able to isolate those pigeons a bit from the rather busy background, your score might have been somewhat higher. But still, it's not bad for your first attempt.

Nicely composed - and the right color to minimize the chalk dust smudges on the fingers.

So, how DO you get these great images without getting sopping wet?
