    This image exudes class from the point of capture through the post processing. Love the colors. Deluxe light quality/warmth. The pose is really nice, particularly the bill touching the water's surface...I wonder about toning down the bright white reflected bit of water on the bird's bill...minor business there for sure. Gorgeous image sir.

    Hi Viv, lovely low angle with a great feeding pose. Love the banded BG, and the colours on these lesser flamingo's are far better than the greater flamingo.

    Barberspan???

    What they said... Just lovely. "Exudes class" is a great description!

    Very nice low angle and I like the string colors in the sweet light. Nice feeding pose. Nice work as always, Vivaldo.

    Beautiful image! Where did you make this image? The Flamingo's in Europe have yellow eyes, the red eyes intrigue me.

    A lovely shot. I am a sucker for water line reflections on bird's plumage.
    I really like the low POV and the tricolored BG.
    Would clone out the specular highlight on the bill,

    Beautiful light and detail on this one Vivaldo. The pose is nice and gives us some great contact with that nice red eye. Nice BG too. Well done.
