The man with the birds

The man with the birds

It was in Paris just under the Eiffel tower’s legs. This man gave bread to the pigeons and his head was so skinny and his expression at the same time lost, sad, strong and so dreamy…

    Fantastic shot – the expression on the man’s face is mesmerising – it’s so almost hauntingly still and focussed while there’s so much activity in the mass of birds he’s feeding. Great shot

    I love this, it reminds me of my favourite childhood movie, Mary Poppins. “Feed the birds, tuppence a bag…” lol. You captured his eyes beautifully!

    There is something sad but joyful about this portrait. Perhaps it is the lonely feel I get from the man yet there is some joy in the companionship with the birds. A very true and captivating moment captured here :)
