We have had 4 straight days of periodic rain, on top of a rainy Spring anyway...mold growing everywhere and mushrooms taking over my lawn.
High 90's predicted later in the week with "air you can wear" humidity.
This brief 20 minutes of an opening in the rain, luckily I had a camera with me. Underexposed in Nik SEFxPro on purpose.
Sculpture in Westminster, MD.
And "Yes" to the annoying artifact in the right lower corner.

Remember that movie, The Birds...
Indeed I do Bill!
This was more inclined to be a reference of some sorts to the Baltimore Ravens football team and the area being the home of Edgar Allen Poe.
This art work is extremely brilliant in the winter with snow on the ground.
Thanks!
Oh I miss read your word "trippy" to read "tippy" who was the female star in that Hitchcock movie..Tippy Hedren. Good one Bill!
Dan
Very nice ode to Alfred Hitchcock. The high contrast really works well and the composition is perfect with the birds against the dark gray in the top photo.
Brent
This is in Baltimore Ravens country Brent. The people here would prefer that connection despite Edgar and Alfred's reference!
Thanks! Steamy hot and humid here! 5 straight days of rain and more to come on top of heat in the 90's!
It is "air you can wear"!

Sort of reminiscent of "The Birds", Dan!
Douglas
If this art work was in a different town(Westminster, MD) away from Baltimore I would agree Douglas. But this is in Baltimore Raven's country, so the "locals" consider it a tribute to them.
The sun was very bright and caused some "haloing" around the ravens in #1.

Alfred Hitchcock came to my mind when I saw this post, looks like it is a big sculpture?
Nice capture Dan.

Thank you Marcelo. Yes it is pretty big. The link I provided shows of the stages the artist's build. I have some shots from a slight distance..It sits atop a high hill and you have rolling hills all around. This day the clouds were fantastic!
Thanks!
