    Another photo from the series with flamingos.

    076 AM, catching one of the first rays or light that come behind the mountain. The birds are naturally arranged with no PP movements :)

    M2N, Sigma 300-800/5.6 at 800mm, 1/250sec, f/8, ISO 640, manual mode.

    Some clone outs of black dots, levels, USM, NR.

    Wow, great light and low angle. Love the mood of the scene. I wish for a better separation of the second flamingo but I like a lot the composition with a sharp bird and two others OOF with the same pose. Very good job and keep them coming:)

    I liked this picture for its Composition, Low angle perspective and the magnamity this picture portrays.
    I agree with Ramon on the noise level.

    Very nice image, the angle and light as mention make the image. While I like the comp I think the image would be stronger with out the third Flamingo which for me does not add anything to the image since it is so OOF.

    Excellent composition. Liked the arrangement of birds from the large in focus one to the smaller OOF birds in the BG. Best part is that their poses are also similar - stooping into water. This is one of my personal favorites in your collection Nikolay.

    Love the low angle and the repeating OOF birds beautiful pink and blue tones.

    Very good!

    Love it! See if you can lighten the flamingo's eye a bit (iris only), and give the whole image a slight CW rotation. Good eye in catching this scene :-)

    Lovely light and nice low perspective. The repeating birds getting smaller and more oof works beautifully here. Well seen and captured.

    Thanks for the comments and suggestions :)

    Raymond, I actually will print 3-5 images from the series at A3 format, along with some other 30-35 of my best images for the last 2.5 years and will try to do an exhibition :)
