Feeding The Pigeons In Boston Commons ~ 1964

It was a chilly November afternoon, and as I was walking across the Boston Commons I spotted this woman feeding the pigeons. She was breaking up some bread, scattering it on the ground, and hundreds and hundreds of pigeons had gathered for the feast! I'd only shot three frames when she was out of bread and walked off. This was the best of the three.

I was using a Minolta Autocord, which took 12 exposures on a roll of 120 film. I'd been wanting one for a long time and just recently purchased this one second hand at a good price. I got a lot of good pictures with that camera. I recently got another one. I hope that the magic returns.
