    Here is my favorite from this year's (so far) flying flamingo images. Have a nice weekend, everyone.

    Like the extended wings and neck. Good eye contact and nice sharpness. I wish the sky would have been a prettier shade of blue.

    These guys sure have some long lines he almost looks to big for his wings. Nice pose and all the techs look good.

    I love it! In the resized version the pupil gets lost, but I'm sure in bigger resolution it looks great there too. Well done!

    Agree with the very similar part, these ones have different colours on their body, they must be awesome to see close-up. Great flight shot Lorant TFS
