 This fellow was taking photos of pigeons in San Juan, PR and, was coaxed into holding the food in his hands...which, from his expression, you can see was not a desirable move on his part. I was very impressed at what he put himself through just to get this shot. Usual PS with some cloning along the lower right to remove a leather strap and a stray out-of-focus wing.

This is a really neat photo. Technically, it's a little over-exposed, but it made me smile none-the-less.

Great shot! Background just a little distracting, at least to my eye

is the compression do some pixelation, or is it just me?
Nice shot though. Lot of action with the doves.

Should have titled this "generous", as the defining feature. Cool photogpraph! Tells a story. Like your use of stopped motion.
