 I took this during a trip to Boston, 11 days before the bombing. I forgot about it until after the bombing and I was looking through my photos.

For processing, I really did not do much. I considering cropping but decided to leave it as is. When I toyed around with the blown-out overexposed spots, it seemed to take away from the rest of the image, so I left it as it. I think I sharpened it a little.

I don't mind the blown out highlights, but I'm weird that way. I quite liked the sad stance of the bird - seemed fitting for sitting in a cemetery.

Hmm. Great sentiment. Blurry though, and blown out on the highlights.
