Black-and-white photo of Bathing Pigeons - Timeless Tranquillity and Natural Grace by Elianne van Turennout

This enchanting black-and-white photograph shows two doves feasting on a refreshing bath. The pigeons' delicate feathers are softened by the lack of colour, drawing full attention to their graceful forms and the subtle textures of their plumage. As the water ripples around them through their movements, the pigeons seem to float in a moment of timeless tranquillity.

The photo's high-contrast tones enhance the depth of the image, bringing every detail of their soft, fluffy feathers to life. The image exudes a sense of peaceful harmony, showing off the pigeons' natural grace to full effect. The serene setting and stillness of the moment invite the viewer to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of nature.

This black-and-white photograph captures not only the elegant movements of the pigeons, but also the peaceful ambience of their bath. The absence of colour puts the focus on the shapes, lines and textures, creating a visually rich and emotionally resonant experience. This picture is a perfect addition to any interior, where it will add a soothing and inspiring element.

Hang this beautiful photo in your home or office and enjoy the serene and timeless beauty of these bathing doves daily. Let it be a reminder of the simple joy and peace that nature offers us.

It all started with a4 paper and HB pencils. As a child I was often impressed by how beautiful the world around me was. The urge to capture this beautiful world, and to show the people around me what I saw, was actually there from the beginning. If I remember correctly, I was about eleven years old when I first met the camera. Of course it was a simple compact camera with a ridiculous quality, but I enjoyed it.

I sometimes said I wanted to be a photographer, but of course you have one of the two parents who says, "Dream on." Strangely enough, I followed the sarcastic remark as advice, and still went to study photography.
