Good eye for an amusing shot - he just doesn't look too happy, does he?

And he doesn't look very happy to have that bird resting on his head, does he. This is a hilarious capture. Too bad the right side was cut off a bit.

The longer I look at it the better I like it. The soft-focus building in the background gives a nice dimension to the composition. Poor Abe sitting there helplessly. The whole shot in shades of blue and blue-gray except the bird is nice, and really focuses the attention on the irony.

Heh! The look on Abe's face, though no doubt he's had that look for some time, seems to indicate his displeasure with the situation. Very nice composition with the building in the background.

Probably a Mexican bird... :P

I'm thinking the bird is the focus, but it's not at thirds. A much closer crop just showing Abe's neck and head with the bird would work.

Why so rude! Is it a southern seagull? The photo does not say much if anything at all.
