The second photo outing of my bridges project yielded four photos that I was quite happy with. I combined this outing with a compositional goal of using triangles in the photos. The bridge that I focused on was the old CPR rail bridge. There were more birds than people out, so they became a secondary focal point.
Birds in Conversation and the Usual Suspects
The first photo here is “birds in conversation”, a view from the top of the bridge along the rail tracks.
The second photo “the usual suspects” shows a grouping of birds pigeons planning their next move – likely something to do with food or tagging cars.
Rail Bridge Bird House
The third photo “rail bridge bird house” I quite like the composition – but the solitary bird adds little to the picture and there is a little too much out of focus foreground for my taste.
This one is my favourite photo from the outing – and final selection for the project. I really like the composition here, and think that the pigeon couple adds a bit more story to the image.
This final selection is available as a print for purchase.
