[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
To join the theme, I have selected one of my many favorite subjects for photographing: Pigeons - Protected species.

This photo was taken in the city of Leiria. Leiria is also a district, the one I live in.

DOMESTIC PIGEONS

PHOTOFILTRE: No cropping-Auto contrast-Revived colors-sharpened-B&W'ed "unwanted" objects-Framed

Thank you for visiting and have a nice weekend.

"Pigeons were first domesticated around 4500 B.C. from stock inhabiting the sea cliffs of the Mediterranean. Since then, nearly 150 varieties have been developed, some for meat, some for fashion, and some for racing. The now extinct passenger pigeon (Columba migratoria), originally from the eastern United States, is a different species. (Photo by David Blevins)"

Ola Lurdes,

Belíssima captura destes pombos.
adorei a forma de captura e variedade deles.
eu estou pasmado com a beleza do azul em suas penas, voce usou HDR aqui, ou está normal suas cores?
Belíssimo visual, detalhes e sharpness
Leve e macio.
Parabens
