What a lovely piece of photography. How can you leave that "Untitled"?

Absolutly wonderful.. the colours, the details of the feathers, the red eye!
Are you sure it is a pigeon?
Or more like an "exotic blue bird"...

@Manuela: Thanks. I also thought it was a blubird, but an "expert" told me I was mistaken and that it is actually a type of pigeon. I'm still not 100% certain one way or the other. :-)
your pigeon vs. my seagull. so far 1-0. :(
but very nice and sharp. did you use unsharp mask?

@Kelvin Chan: Yes, I used unsharp mask, but I can't remember the setting for this image. I find that about 99.99% of digital images need some level of sharpening. If I remember correctly I also increased the contrast.
