Pigeon & The Lamp


Today’s photo is a capture that’s was managed through complete luck. I was walking along Portales, New Mexico’s Main Street on a photo assignment with my Aunt under the instruction to shoot everything and everything for a magazine. I spotted a pigeon (my normal urban subject) and grabbed a perfectly in-focus shot. The lines in the image, the deep blue and the contrasting subjects work brilliantly. This won’t be used in the magazine, but it’s still a worthy capture in my opinion.

I love pigeons. Sure, they’re disease ridden, but I think they’re great photography subjects. Their movement always amuses me and they look at peace when catching some sun. I couldn’t resist this shot today on lunch; I love the deep-red eye.
