When doves cry

Blog | Google+ | Twitter

 

I was cycling home this evening and noticed an abandoned building with some doves flying in and out of the broken windows. So I came home, got my camera and drove back not really expecting to be lucky enough to find them again. However they were still there and I was able to take a few shots, this one was probably my favourite. I liked it in colour but decided that it looked more striking in black and white.

 

I was sat at home afterwards looking at my photos on the computer while listening to the Prince - Purple Rain album (an old favourite) and the title for the image just jumped out at me. In this image one dove looks like it is leaving the other so it kind of works, I'm not sure if they actually cry however. ;)
