Flaming - horse stand

[Lorant Voros]

I share one more of these for me special images of flamingos bathing. I have been living in Yucatan for a while, but have never witnessed this behavior in so shallow water. This pose makes me think of a horse for some reason. I am very eager to read your thoughts and comments.

LORANT:

A striking image with an unusual pose that does indeed remind me of a horse rearing up or getting ready to go over a jump.

Excellent shooting angle, exposure and sharpness. Soft layered bg for sense of depth.

I can see why you like it!

Congrats

Striking image, the pose is very special. I also like the low shooting angle and the beautiful colors, Lorant.

Karl beat me to it those are pretty much the words I was going to use! I think you really nailed this the pose colours details and background are outstandingly good, I would go so far to say this is one of your very best.

This is one heck of a unique image and pose! Love the wing flapping pose and all those water droplets. The light was sublime. I enjoy the layers in the FG & BG. Surely a unique pose and it gives the viewer a lot to think about.
