Regents Park - a clean pigeon for a change, must be all the recent rain :biggrin: - uncropped full frame - two OOF highlights probably need taking out

Hi Mike,

Good detail and colours here. The much maligned pigeon usually gets overlooked but can be a remarkably attractive subject in the right lighting. The body could be turned more from straight on but only a minor nit.

I agree with Rob, the flying rat can look attractive in the right conditions. I think you have done very well with good colours and detail in the head.
