During the trip to Little India with Boon Thong, I saw a scatter of birds scavenging whatever food was found in the alley while walking towards Mustafa Centre.

At that moment, I was brainstorming on how to capture some interesting shots of the birds, and this idea came into my mind. I’ve seen many cliche shots of girls chasing or scaring pigeons, and wanted to emulate something like that.

But alas.. my potential model was my tall buddy in green, instead of a pretty girl in white dress. This stopped me from having any further thoughts of executing the shot.

So, still wanting to catch the birds in action, I resigned to getting Boon Thong to stomping his foot to send the birds flying away. Looked like the birds cared more about their food than his foot, as most of them continued to eat nonchalantly while only some flew up for a couple of seconds before landing again to compete against the rest for the rice grains.

So, well, not exactly a beautiful and clean shot, but a shot that records fond memories of goofing around with my buddy.
