That's a super picture you've taken of this dove Stanley.

Such a rare visitor to the Gallery too with only 2 other images in so far!! I think this one is an improvement on the current on in The Opus, so I'll upload it to the article shortly.

Many thanks for sharing it with us my friend.
 
those golden spots show up very well, Stanley, I've got a few photos of these but the golden spots are far less obvious. excellent photo with great colors, top class, many tfs!!!
