Gulls to Fence

Posted on April 22, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

Still quite ill, so only this photo this evening. Not exactly a great shot, but I feel there’s a fair bit to see around the action of the gulls looking to land. I hope you enjoy.

Posted on March 23, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

I hadn’t seen rock doves sitting in the rain before I saw them here.It was something I found quite interesting. They could’ve gone under shelter, but didn’t. Maybe this is normal behaviour for them. This is my submission into Leanne Cole‘s … Continue reading →

Almost Sideways

Posted on February 9, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

A lucky shot. It almost looks as though the rock dove isn’t moving in the sense that it could be falling in the position it is in due to being very still, or frozen, or something. The way the rock … Continue reading →

Legs and Wings

Posted on February 5, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

I think I was really lucky with this photo. I really like the clarity in this shot as it helps with the focus on the rock dove’s form. I think the clarity also helps to make the rock dove feel … Continue reading →

Approaching Flight

Posted on January 13, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

I feel as though this is slightly on the subtle side, though admittedly I may be giving myself too much credit there. Besides, this capture had a lot more to do with luck than skill. I like the slight implication … Continue reading →

Flying Somewhere

Posted on July 24, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Similar to two photos I took last year. This feels a little less dramatic and smaller. The rock dove seems almost as though it has no legs. It feels like it’s moving through the air without moving its wings. I … Continue reading →

Movement Through Air

Posted on June 3, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

The same flock of rock doves as this one. I think this photo gives a strong impression of motion and form. I really like how there’s both the shapes of the individual rock doves, as well as the overall flock. … Continue reading →

A Flock of Rock Doves

Posted on May 9, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

This was taken a few weeks ago now whilst walking around the neighbourhood. It’s not often I get to see a flock of birds flying around; especially when it comes to the way these rock doves were moving. They would … Continue reading →

One Cleans the Other

Posted on March 2, 2019 by Stupidity Hole

A photo of two rock doves. Taken around the same time as the other two recent bird photos. I think that this is a nice, pleasant a small photo. It’s a small thing that’s happening and as such it feels … Continue reading →

Rock Dove Bathing

Posted on May 22, 2018 by Stupidity Hole

Here we have a photo of a rock dove bathing. Perhaps it is to cool down. Perhaps it is to remove dirt and maintain plumage. There are many reasons as to why this rock dove could be bathing in the … Continue reading →
