2 enamoured pigeons.

First there was one, it turned into 2, and I can do guarantee they are in love.

Why now it, yes because it's the same dove, and show me one who doesn't love himself.

And it's the same dove, number 2 pigeon just got a small face-lifting, change of colours, lights and contrast and hey presto! a completely different pigeon. 2 different photos put together to one in adobe CS3.

A TL member wasn't satisfied with the previous background why it's removed.

So now I hope mr. FEH are satisfyide the background are gone.

ISO 100
Focal Length 300 mm.
Shutter speed mixed

Have a nice weekend and please TAKE CARE.

Greetings
Jens.

Hi Jens,
A nice and fine sharp image of these two lovely doves. A pity the tail of the right pigeon is partly cut. Anyway a fine posting Jens!

No you are joking Jens, the same one?? What a great job. Well it is only fitting to create a couple in love when spring is coming.

Lovely work.

Hi Jens,
very nice, and creative but I think you still need to make adjustments to the background so it has a contrast to the color of the the feather on the pigeons. And then you have to clean your yard when you got all those pigeons at home :-) But a very nice and creative work from you my friend.

Hello Jens,

First there was one. Now there are two!
They both have that incredible expression!

Excellent sharpness and detail! Pity about the cropped tail. It might have been possible to clone the tail from one onto the other! You are good at pp work.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
Many thanks for your warm comments on 'Welcome to the Nursery'.

Hello Jens :o)

Hehe ! The couple now ! Good PP work :o) Sharp and cute idea my dear :o) Love is in the air ! Be prudent, pigeons are birds which follow you easily ;o)

Hi Jens
Spring is in the air and of course pidgeons don't bypass it.
You know they multiply fast so keep cloning away.
Good pp work on your twins but I have to admit I like the glint in the right one's eyes.
Dot

Good one Jens
Next one with the pigeon pups ok ?

:-)

Nice sharp image here, Jens, with added pigeon Looking a bit more coloured. I love the face lift. Pretty amazing how one can capture a different look, just with light and adjustments. Well done, fun posting.

Hi Jens,
First of all, concerning the BG, and as is frequently mentioned here; to each his or her own opinion...I actually like the BG of your previous photo as I find it provides a better DOF and more natural view.
Concerning this photo; you did a great job as our immediate thought is that there really are two pigeons!
Very nice presentation.
TFS

Lurdes
