The other sie of a flamingo

[Lorant Voros]

A not usual view of this bird, I know. Normally we prefer eye contact, a good head and body angle, but I think this is an exception and this image is strong and it works. What do you think?

Interesting. This does tell a story and the feathers on top of the backside view add a point of interest. I could see another version where we see the bird's head at the bottom of the frame.

I am a fan. Beautiful colors and textures. Agree that I would be interested in seeing a composition that had the head in the frame.

Lorant, interesting perspective, looks like a headdress. The addition of the head would have made this better.

Lorant:

I like it. A garden of orange flowers with unusual stems! I know that you have lots of flamingo images, and this type would be especially effective in a display of other flamingo images.

It would be fun to have a rear view like this with the head looking back between the legs.

Well seen.

Lorant, I applaud you for presenting something different, sure is a cacophony of orange sherbet feathers, and i like it. I agree with suggestions above, if you could find a head attached at the bottom, that would be wonderful!

[William Dickson]

Love the colours and detail throughout. Yep a nice head would make so much difference..

I love it Lorant, it's so different, yet it works well for me.
Agreed about head. But hey, I love those feathers blowing up!
Well done!

Thanks for all these many comments and suggestions. I do have the head in the original frame. I will include it in the composition. Thanks again.
