They are such breathtaking creatures! I love the up close image as it allows to see every detail. The colors are beautiful yet simple and the background allows for the attention to be placed where it needs to be. Wonderful work!!

Very well done composition on black canvas. The colors and unusual position of the bird make the picture look elegant and attractive. Thanks for sharing.

This is one of the most beautiful birds. Their beaks are amazing and the multitude of colors that you can see them in is amazing.
I love how it stands out with your choice of black background.
I love how you got so up close and personal with it.
It is such an overall wonderful presentation.
Good luck in the contest.
Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Shadow catcher


Simply gorgeous photo of this flamingo,very nicely depicted in this vertical format.Incredibly sharp,can't get over all the exquisite detail in those lovely feathers, and that eye so incredibly sharp.That black background really makes this bird pop out from the picture.Great capture with it's neck nicely curved-thank you so very much for sharing this fantastic photo!

Really good notes here Eileen.

Your Flamingo is amazing. So much detail in that face...that beak and those eyes....and the black background you've used makes this guy jump off the page. Your whites are perfect...the yellow eye spot on. ...and, of course you captured this at such an interesting moment w/ the bird's long neck curled into such a fascinating shape....the vertical crop just the perfect way to present that.

Now Fur and Feathers filter I am not familiar with. I assume that is what is giving the white body, neck etc that look, yes??? I think it's a gorgeous image....just can't quite decide how I feel about what that filter does. Purely a personal thing. I think it's a wonderful shot of this guy.

Very interesting picture. You captured the flamingo at a unique moment. Color, contrast and composition all good. Nicely focused, with flamingo standing out perfectly from the dark background.

Comment from Beckie51


Wow, amazing. This picture would stop me in a photo gallery for a long look. The black background magnifies the flamingo. Focus couldn't be better, so much detail is seen. I love the POV, just straight on. Color is great.
