Great poses Juan, good exposure on the birds. Not a nit, just personal preference, but these birds just look so much better with a blue sky BG.;)

Love the comp here.. Fine image. A more blue sky would be nice but I imagine this is what you had to work with...

You are working your way into my black list :) :)

Not only in flight, but two of them!!!!

Superb flight capture Juan. I saw thousands of these at Lake Nakuru but never in flight. These are just a wonderful series of images. Big congratulations !!!!

Congrats once again! All images from the flamingo series are striking and breathtaking :)!
I hope this year to have the chance to stalk them at Kerkini lake, Greece.

Juan, another winner from your excellent flamingo series. I particularly like your composition here.
