My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
And why is it called a "mourning" one? Does not look particularly bereaved or bereft [whichever you prefer LOL]. Beautiful lighting in this composition, dear agent. Yours SAM
Sandi - The coo of the mourning dove is heard often. The lighting has picked up the soft pastel hues of the bird, accentuated by the blurred natural gradient background. Thad
Oh, is she ever pretty! I don't see mourning doves around here in the winter. I wonder why you do?...lol...Outstanding capture Sandi with perfect focus and everything else!!!
