Lovey Dovey

These two were perched on my deck in the morning. Confession time - I photoshopped the...uh....."by products" out of the photo. Trust me, it's better this way.

I think doves are so pretty... so beautiful in their browns. These two are lucky, living in CA where it's warm and snow-free. Good job 'cleaning up' the railing.

[Tracy]

Wow, wonderful capture. The blue in their feathers and beaks is stunning! Haha.. nice clean up job too!

[Babs]

Beautiful shot they look very plump and a wise move to remove the droppings. How did we cope before Photoshop.

[Kristina Olsen]

love the soft blues and grays on the birds

[Peter]

Beautiful capture in lovely detail and colour Ron, love the framing and pleased about the removal of thier natural waste, lol:)

[Joy's Focus]

Lovely doves! Nice job on the photoshop clean up.

[Tatiana]

Горлицы прекрасны! И поют красиво.А на палубе это где?

[Sarah Munnings]

All fluffed up against the cold............I understand the removal! I usually do the same ;)

[Chris Johnson]

Haha I've done that removal before too. I really like the colors of their feathers, fantastic photo!

[Caroline]

Really nice. Great dof. The feathers are so sharp. Good job cleaning it up as well.

[Poppo Livy]

Lovely capture Ron. Looks as if puffy shirts are back in.

[Ron]

@lyndemc Thanks Denise - yes, I don't think this particular couple would cope well with the chilly weather - same as the photographer!

[Ron]

@marmaladeskyes Thanks Tracy. I actually didn't notice the blue until you and others pointe it out. Thanks for that!

[Ron]

@onewing Ha!, yes, Babs, Photoshop has certain advantages that we've come to depend on.

[Ron]

@kauaikris Thanks for the comments, Kristina. I do appreciate it.

[Ron]

@pcoulson Thanks Peter - I must admit I had you in mind when I spotted the pair. I had to at least try to match your ability to bring out the details in the feathered ones. ;-)

[Ron]

@joysfocus Thanks, Joy. Gotta love that Photoshop!

[Ron]

@simta Я согласен с тем, что они так красивы, Татьяна. Эта колода находится рядом с моей спальней. Великая сцена просыпаться!

[Ron]

@pixiemac Thanks, Sarah. Yeah, I don't think I was doing what most of us wouldn't do anyway. Hard to imagine one being attracted to such a scene - "Hey, I like the way you captured the poo!"

[Ron]

@cjphoto Thanks Chris - appreciate the kind words.

[Ron]

@clake Thank you Caroline!

[Ron]

@terryliv Did puffy shirts ever really go out of style? ;-) Thanks, Terry!
