Fabulous Eileen. Looks like wonderful Flamingo Gardens. The elegance and artistic line of the Flamingo's neck is super and when mirror reflected back in the water is superb. Composed and framed perfectly with the point of beak entry to the water centered. Technically clear with fine detail and natural color. A masterpiece. Good luck. Ed.

Ha.... You struggle with the same problem I do! Green Water! It drives me nuts - psychologically my brain is wired to expect blue water. LOL... What do we do. I'm sorry... I've gotten off track and need to recenter. There is nothing we can do - it is what it is. Beautiful reflection, contrast and presentation captured with nice sharpness in the detail and reflective properties. Kathy

Clever, unique out of the ordinary entry for a water contest.
While most will enter one waterfall after the other..it's nice to see something different.
Sharp focus, dreamy look, Controlled Exposure and superb stop action on this skimming Flamingo.
Good Luck E ;)
