Feeding Time
Isn't it funny that the shots we take often convey a different emotional-set than what we're feeling?
I say this, as today I drove 25 miles away to the city/town of Bath, feeling grim, down and awful all day; in addition it hardly got above freezing.
This shot then seems to me to be pretty surreal, the light and subject suggesting a plethora of things quite other to that I was feeling at the time.
The bridge in the background is called Pulteney Bridge...it is actually ONE of only THREE bridges in the world that has shops on it...a fact that is apparently true.
I've been to one of the others, which must be the Ponte Vecchio in Florence...no idea where the final one is...!

Anyway, this was shot thus: 1/500s, 200 ISO, f8, with the 21mm.
I do love how this lens "draws" light and tone.
I've also included some foreground detail to give you an idea of what it looks like...er, close up...

Great companion piece to your other one at the same location re the decisive moment. Tremendous detail obvious in the birds...
