Flamingo in the mist

[Juan Aragonés]

This image is from the same day and exactly the same spot of my two previous flamingos but this one is from the morning. Very misty morning and the light was very different to the images of the evening but I love this kind of soft light and the mood it produces on the images.

Nikon D2X AFS Nikkor 500VR+1,4XTC handheld from my car, ISO500 f5,6 1/800s manual exposure

Lovely light, Juan. Mist and water works light a great big softbox or light tent. Really works well with these light pastel colours. Pose is nice with the leg sweeping through the water adding an element of motion. Very peaceful image.

I really like the reflection,soft light and pose!!!

[Bogdan Coltea]

Wonderful image with great mood.
Personally, I would crop a tiny bit from the left.

A lovely picture Ramon do i miss the fog?

[Stephen Stephen]

Juan very nice reflection and details in the feathers. I also like the water running off the right leg. This type of light is kind to colours.

I too might be tempted to trim a bit off the left side.

[Mike Dale]

Wonderful job on the exposure. The pose too is excellent.

[Nicki Gwynn Jones]

I love this as presented - the colours and soft light really add to the peaceful mood.

Love the feel of this Juan, my favorite of the series. Nice soft tones and sharpness in the subject. Love the water drops on the beak and foot. Nicely done.
