26 bridges “rail bridge birds”

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.
