AWESOME SAUCE!!
My Shadow! I am seeing much improvement with White balance controlling those color temps in the Hot sun. LOVE the dark background,Sharp focus, stop action, captured open bill pose and superb colors and details.
Camera techs are SPOT on! Bravo!

stunning photography capturing the beauty of these birds. The contrast between the background and the subject works beautifully and emphasises the splendour of the colours. I think this is a glorious phot which could quite easily hang on a wall and attract viewers..it does me :)

Stunningly dramatic Eileen. The colors are just amazingly. Perfect timing on your part to capture this w/ the one guy's neck so stretched out....beak wide open. The dark background absolutely sets this off to perfection. Really nice work.

A nicely composed shot. I like the stretched out neck and the great detail in the beak and eyes. Beautiful colors and very nice detail in the plumage.

Comment from Lolly Cardinal
Fantastic flamingos colors are bright and delightful. Head and faces are clear and awesome. Black background enhances these beautiful animals colors. Centered, detailed and shadowed properly.
Great photography and eye viewer.
Thanks for showing,
Congratulations and Good Luck.
Have yourself a great day

Comment from Alveria
This is a gorgeous photo and dramatic composition. The black background adds to the dramatic look and of course makes the color pop even more. Amazing clarity rendering detail and texture. The color is just beautiful and rich, the lighting, perfect. I wish I had a six for this as it is so deserving of one. Very well done. Cyber 6 ~Alveria

Or maybe they're reaching out to grab hold of a human for some unknowable ( but doubtlessly fearsome!) reason!
"M'wah-ha-ha-ha-ha!" : D
Seriously though,Eileen,this one's another fine looking photo!
These big things are splendidly colorful avian creatures to begin with and the coloration treatment of this particular picture looks great!

Comment from JenFeden
The pop of red tones with the Flamingos against the deep black color stands out. What I like best is the angle chosen, Having them all on one side with just the neck reaching forward, beautiful.
