Of the many things I encounter on photo walks that society has neglected, the most impactful are abandoned humans. I general, I treat people living respectfully, and don't photograph them, but some stories need to be told. 1/3

Cape Vultures
I was holding this one out until Rob or Alan had a #BirdoftheDay theme of PrettyFaces, but #ShadeofGrey will do. 😀 Actually as vultures go, this pair is pretty handsome.

As the #BirdoftheDay theme is #ShadesofGrey, I thought I'd start with a grey stalwart, the Rock Dove (aka rock pigeon or common pigeon).

A bit of surrealist silliness depicting how we poor writers are hounded by characters insisting their stories be documented.

The alternate #BirdoftheDay theme is birds on #Posts, or as they are otherwise known, Gulls.

I want to take a moment to brag about my #StreetPhotography feed. After culling some 2500 people who post unrelated stuff, it’s finally showing #RealStreet shots.
A pinned post shows my definition of the genre. I hope you'll check it out.

I pulled this deep from my archives, because today's #BirdoftheDay prompt, #DucksoutofWater, made me wonder why I didn't have more duck photos. I do.

Three Young Mallards Take Flight. There are rivers, bays, and other waterways nearby, but these guys take refuge in small ponds engineered near housing developments. City birds gotta city.

#StreetPhotography
- Candid shots of strangers in public spaces
- Does not require a street
- Excludes photos without people
- Evolved from painters like Degas & Manet
- Can include shots with 'human sentiment' but the human environment is #UrbanPhotography
