[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hi all,

This is my second post to TrekNature. And this time is a photo of a pigeon that I took at Penang Hill, Penang last weekend.

Not much technical thing I can write here about this pigeon, as I am sure most of you guys here now about pigeons.. and perhaps its commonly found everywhere.. hehe.. so i guess its a good subject or object to begine my nature photography.

I use a zoom lens, Nikkor 70-300mm and zoomed from far away to take this photo. I set to aperture priority mode and to f/5.6, hoping to create a shallow DOF, blurring the background.

This is the original photo, no photoshop works, except for resizing, minor cropping and added a border.

Comments, Critiques and Workshops are welcomed.
Have a nice day.

Hi there Thong. Looks like this pigeon is hopping on one foot. I love the neck feathers, all very clear and sharp. Thankyou for sharing.
And good to see you on TrekNature.
