I finally freed up enough space on my hard drives to process my Garden of the Gods shots from the 6th, and took the time to make a few samples for your enjoyment (I hope...).
This sample image has a bit of a history; a long time ago (in 2002) when I started taking slides, I took a very simple picture of the Three Graces. As I was walking past the formation this time, I knew I needed to update the shot - this is the result. Not a masterwork, perhaps, but I found the pigeon flight enchanting.

I like this shot with the pigeons alot.
When I was a teenager, I used to climb in the Garden in the afternoon 3-4 days per week. I hated those damned pigeons, but here, I'll just pretend they are doves.

That's what I'm pretending, too! (They are, technically - Rock Doves.)

I really like this shot. The birds on the upper right really add to the image.
