I was in Boston in mid-November and was walking thru the Commons near a fountain. Suddenly this flock of pigeons took off and started swirling around us. Some flew quite close - freaked me out. So I whipped out my camera and just started shooting and hoped for the best. And here it is.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: This is a highly dynamic image - I really enjoy the rightmost pigeon which acts as an anchor for the rest of the image.
Critical stuff: I think there are elements of your editing choices that might be seen as a little over-egged. I think I'd have preferred this as a grainy monochrome than a smoothed colour image.
