Fight Club!

Fight Club!
Pigeons fighting over the seed in my garden. A daily occurrence!

Taken through the double glazing of our living room window, so not the best quality..............

Jolie scène animalière, mais avant de lire ton commentaire, je trouvais que le tirage manquait un peu de contraste. J'ai l'explication avec le double vitrage.
Je ne sais pas si tu utilises un logiciel de post-traitement, mais il est toujours possible de monter légèrement le contrastes.

Glad you like the scene Jean-luc. The feeding tray is set up near my window, but in the wet and cold weather it's not possible to leave it open to shoot through, so I must make do with shooting through the glass........which of course affects the picture quality.

I do use post-processing software, but this is the best I could do with it! Thanks for your comments and visit. Always appreciated.

..............it would be better if I didn't have to shoot through the double glazing, but when the weather gets better I plan on moving the feeding station into a better position to take photos.

It's better than watching the TV.................especially when the squirrel arrives and chases them all away!

They cost us a fortune in seed though :-)))
