background is the
" The Porta Nigra (Latin for black gate) is a large Roman city gate in Trier, Germany. It is today the largest Roman city gate north of the Alps and has been designated a World Heritage Site.
The name Porta Nigra originated in the Middle Ages due to the darkened color of its stone; the original Roman name has not been preserved. Locals commonly refer to the Porta Nigra simply as Porta."

Great shot with the right DOF. The unsual angle looks really interesting. Only minor drawback is that the pigeon on the left has part of its head cut off but it's almost impossible to get a perfect shot from this kind of angle.
