Below are just a few starting points to look at. I know the
subject matter of what I want to photograph, however I’m not too sure on the
style. I have given it some thought and at the moment the below seems like a
good place to start. Looking more at street pigeons. My main focus is getting out
and doing some street photography to capture the birds, in black and white,
hopefully along the lines of the below images.
These images are just shots that I found when simply googling
‘pigeon photography’ I have put the links to the images along side.
Looking maybe at something a little less conventional. The idea of death, loss maybe. Really want my
images to hold emotion in them but also have a deeper, more personal meaning. This really works in black and white. I feel that’s what
captures the emotion. Also makes it feel timeless.
I love this one; the silhouette of the pigeon flying is
something I am aiming to also capture. I like how you can see the urban
surroundings in the outer area of the image. This is rather symbolic; I also
like how the bird itself is blurred and distorted showing movement and flight.

The reason I like this image so much is because of the
darkness, its really intense and I feel like again to holds a lot of emotion. This is in the sky and the birds flying around. It kind of
makes you feel like something is going to happen, almost like they are preparing
for battle in a way (maybe just my silly thought but that’s what I feel when I look
at it)
