Taking Flight, a photo from Nordrhein-Westfalen, Ouest

Photographer's Note

In this picture you can see one of the towers of the university of Bonn's main buildings. All of a sudden this pigeons were heading in all directions. I had to take a quick snapshot and then use a small part of the picture which is why I feel that the level of sharpness could be better. As we all know though, sometimes there's no time to properly compose a picture...

Very beautiful the effect of pigeons flying around the tower, the excellent choice of black and white.
A photo of the highest order.

Hello, Philipp.
I like that you have catched these birds flying over the tower. It is also interesting, that it is tilted - maybe accidentally, but doesn't look bad - I think it was not necessary to correct it. Nice shot!
regards,
Greg

Hello Philipp,

An orginal but very good framing. The birds gives life and your composition. Good use of B&W too.
Best regards,

Hi Philipp,
An interesting angle together with the bright white sky punctuated with the blurred motion of the birds caught my eye for this nice image. Sometimes one is lucky with the quick shots and here I think you got an interesting result.

Wanda

Hi Philipp,

Great picture! Simple and briliant. I like the blurred doves around the solid sharp tower.

Rgeards,
