Day 005, Year 2 - Oxford Street Bird

I had a little wander into central London after having coffee with a friend in West Hampstead. I was feeling the effect of very little sleep during my time when Alexis stayed at mine (our body clocks are totally different!) so at one point I was wandering round the city aimlessly and in a very subdued state.

I was heading back to get on the tube and then saw these birds outside a book shop just off Oxford Street so went in for a snap.

I really like your composition and the fact that the bird is looking at you.

Great shot with the pigeons in the background as well

Wonderful pov! It reminds me of a little old man on a bench, thinking his thoughts and keeping his beady eye on the goings on around him.

I was thinking of one or two of my own shots when I took this. http://365project.org/stevecameras/365/2013-03-02 http://365project.org/stevecameras/365/2013-02-14
Saying that I'm very keen to NOT repeat myself over this project. :)

Good capture!

The bird man really came to mind for me too. That shot really stuck in my mind - it was so brilliant and one of my favourite favs.

@happysnap Thank you Linda, very kind of you to say. It was probably the 'best' photo last year, if not my favourite.

Great shot, I really like the textures you got in the feathers
