Wow now that is creative and unique. Great composition. The colors are so very cool here too. Bright green and dark blue against his gorgeous bright pink color. Wow. Most excellent.

Thanks Carey. Lol

Comment from Cephus
Very nice abstract type of image.

Colors are great and the composition only showing a part of the flamingo is creative - the circular pattern and the saturated colors are very nice.

Simple but works well. My only issue is that the one bright spot is too big and bright. Very nice visual impact.

Would give you a 5.5 if I had one to give.

Ha! Looks like he is blowing bubbles. Great shot of this very red flamingo...much darker than the one's in our park. Great shot. Love the ripples and the lines of him.

they were mostly lighter colored on this day I shot them. But this one had a very dark color compared to the rest. Older perhaps ?

More likely just a pig! They get there color from the shrimp...maybe this one was stealing them from the rest! :)

Brave of you to use this sort of crop. I am a bit torn..not sure I really care for it..but it isn't bad either. I like the water ripples a lot. Donkeyoatey

LOL I certainly understand. that is where my graphic senses take over. I see beauty in the unusual. Thanks so much Donkey! I appreciate your comments no matter what! :)

Comment from Anita B
Humorous and creative shot. The color of his neck is brilliant. The focus is sharp. The water is nicely focused in the fore- ground fading to soft in the
background. Love the pink knees.
