About I was having a soft drink in the lobby of Port-Sudan Hilton Hotel when I noticed these pigeons standing beside each other and drinking from the pool's water !
I thought it looked like if they were starting a swimming race and waiting for the gun to go off to jump into the water or as if they were looking at something at the bottom.
I found it a funny picture so I decided to share it with my friends.
Merry Christmas to all my friends and happy new year.

This photo was captured in Port Sudan - Sudan.

You right Khaled? an hilarious picture it is ? lovely upload?

And just as Montreal enters the deep freeze you?re in tropical Sudan, drinking a cooler by the pool and photographing pretty pigeons.
- I really envy you? and a nasty emotion it is, envy!

All the best

Very nice capture Khaled, you have a nice imagination :) i like the pigeon in the middle, the one that looks like about to dive in the pool :) very nice composition indeed, it is good that you get to carry your camera with you all the time, for me, i am having a problem with that, i might get in trouble because of it .. ;) Very well done, Regards,

I think they are going to have to blow the whistle, that one bird took off too soon. Great Title and beautiful take. I love how the early birds wings match the color of the water. Alison
