[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I caught a flock of pigeons mid flight, near the spire of San Felipe de Neri Church, built in 1793. They're blurred though, from motion blur. Albuqueque is over a mile high (5,280 feet above sea level) hence the intense blue sky, albeit aided by a polarizing filter.

"Old Town is a historic district in Albuquerque, New Mexico, dating back to the founding of the city by the Spanish in 1706. Today it is a popular shopping and tourist destination. Old Town comprises about ten blocks of historic adobe buildings grouped around a central plaza (a common feature of Spanish colonial towns). Many of the buildings in Old Town are houses that have been converted into restaurants and small art and souvenir shops. On the north side of the Plaza is San Felipe de Neri Church, the oldest building in the city, which was built in 1793."

Hello Chris,

A beautifully balanced shot composed of many differing shapes, colours and textures.
The sharpness is perfect and the light ... amazing.
At first, I thought the birds were leaves dropping from the f/g tree. They are an interesting addition.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Chris
It looks like you did a lot of travelling around Anerica when you were there over the holidays.
I like your sunny scene here, and the church is lit up so well. The composition with the tree on the left looks good.
Well done
Janice

Hello Chris! Nice place, very interesting church. Wonderful colours. Excellent saturation. Well done!
