Challenge: Out of Place (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Nikon D70
Location: Chicago, IL
Date: Mar 24, 2004
Aperture: f6.3
Shutter: 1/160
Galleries: Animals
Date Uploaded: Mar 28, 2004

 Pigeons waiting along the pathwalk for someone to feed them. This is a distance away from Lake Michigan in Chicago, but a seagull is seen intermingling with them. Perhaps it is lost. The pigeons seem not to care though.

Tech: taken with a zoom lens, and just autolevels, resize and unsharp mask in Photoshop.

Well captured but the seabird may be the odd one out but it's not out of place - looks like it's foraging for scraps along with all the other birds.

The subject is very nice, but tha concrete give it a barren atmosphere. Too bad there wasn't much green gras..
