Flamingos are ace. But as with all birds, it's all in the framing and I know if it was me, I'd be torn between cropping in for that lovely S shaped neck and leaving the floating feather in the picture. It's a tough call, but I think cropping tight would win out in this instance as there's no horizon in the shot. I think if the shot were more landscape based then the feather would fall into the equation of spaced out detail.
I just think the green water would make an awesome backdrop for the yellow eyes, and black beak, which incidentally is in a great position to show the high contrast edges, which would otherwise be lost in the dark green.

lol, i hope all that makes sense or gives you an idea of how the photo's being percieved anyway. Take it easy ;)

Thanks, I'll try to crop this one to see how it looks like!! Good suggestion!

marvellous shot.

Thanks Mani187!!

Linby...I tried the crop, but I prefer the original! But thanks anyway!!!

Love this shot - the shrimp pink against the green water is great the single floating feather is a bonus.
