Hi Ritesh, I greatly appreciate images that exceed documentation and to me this one portrays the flamingo in an artistic, elegant and tasteful manner. I think that you nailed the pastel colorations of both the subject and it's habitat. Very Nice. steve

What I like most is the graduated colours in the bg and the elegant pose of the bird,very nice work Ritish.

Lovely image and subject. Love that layered BG. Wouldn't have minded the bird looking just a tad more toward the viewer.

Hi Ritesh, a typical elegant Flamingo walking pose, especially capturing the raised foot out the water. Love the layered BG. There is a bit of banding visible in the BG.

Thanks Stu ....... for your appreciation. I am agree with the banding in BG but in original Tiff it's not there I think it is because of compression for the web which brought it out..... Thanks for pointing out I don't even notice while posting.....
