Full House - 3 gents, 2 pigeons

Comment by tnun:
This photo ages well - I think because the 3 guys are all concentrating on different things. (Is it my monitor? Can ever so barely make out that fragment of pigeon 3).

Nice composition. It's funny, I was looking at a pinecone today when I picked up my kids from school and thought that would be neat to take a closeup of. Nice work....now I have to think of something else.

this looks great in black and white. the shadow really helps emphasize the curvature of the piece. love the sharp detail of the edges.

Deb, I think the lighting makes this shot so very well. I'm glad you brought the treasure home and graced us with this beautiful piece of art.

Only a 'real' photographer could use the expression "found this branch on the ground. Brought it home" and not be considered mad

Lovely dof on this shot and - especially compared to yesterday - love the dead space.

Strangely enough I have a bowl of pine cones about 2 feet away from me which I thought might make a decent entry for this challenge...Given that you have done this so well I guess I needn't bother now.

Quite different from your norm, yet still a lovely image

Deb, I never would have thought of processing a pine cone in b&w, but it is really lovely! Your DOF is fabulous. I like this one a lot.

Very nice - I like the focus and how you arranged it all in the frame.
