But I do like the light even though the perch is less than interesting.

    Those doves are not really a hot item to shoot, but you can get some nice captures with the right light...and you did.

    Thanks for sharing,

    It actually was looking at some finches or sparrow that were foraging on the ground. I wish it was a baseball game he was looking at because that would mean I'd be at my favorite sporting event! :D

    Thanks. I think the light made the shot because the perch and the bird are rather boring.

    I agree! Doves may be common, but with the right lighting and bg they are as pretty as the next bird!!!

    The light is super thumb.gif

    I would maybe have tried a slightly different frame/crop to try and remove some of the diamond mesh at the bottom...

    Thanks Douglas. The dawn and dusk times can render some great light.
