Jail Break!
Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 26 August 2009 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.
The bird from yesterday and two of her friends made a break for it when the owner left a door open. He quickly corralled them though.

I like this scene in black and white, a timeless touch to this old activity... (and great composition with many lines around the action). Great capture !!

You've caught a nice moment of action. It could be funny if one were to escape through his legs. Herding chickens must be a novel experience for him. Nice shot.

almost a movie scene. It's funny, lively, the B & W captures the image, one is almost transported in movies the first time, well done Steve.

The Great Escape! Fortunately - chickens are - well - chicken - and know where the food happens. I love this image and love Portland. What neighborhood was this in?

@Stephen Phillips: The tour booklet calls this the SE Stark - Burnside neighborhood.
Daryl Johnson from Farnham, United Kingdom
Nice action shot! I like how the frame is divided up by the fence pole.
