Flamingo Friday '18 02

It's Friday and you know what the means - another Flamingo Friday offering! This indignant looking guy did not appear to approve of me snapping his portrait. I promised I'd make him look good though.

He looks quite shy.

[summerfield]

how do you know it's a he?

[summerfield]

too quick on the reply button. :-P i mean, i can differentiate the male and female mute swans but not flamingo.

[Peter]

Superb soft tones, focus, depth of field and presentation Ron:)

[Taffy]

This is quite the outstanding shot -- great focal point and beautiful framing.

[bkb in the city]

Great capture

[Joanna kate]

Great focus, like the pink behind

[Ron]

@onewing Thanks Babs, I guess there is a bashful quality about him.

[Ron]

@summerfield I figured it was a male only because he dropped the newspaper on the ground, then walked over to a bush and peed on it right out there in the open. That was good enough for me.

[Ron]

@pcoulson Thanks very much Peter - checked off four boxes there!

[Ron]

@taffy Thanks Taffy - I owe it all to the camera and lens. The D850 seems to understand what I'm trying to focus on much better than my old camera. Or maybe we're just beginning to understand each other.

[Ron]

@bkbinthecity Thank you kindly, Brian.

[Ron]

@joannakate Thanks Joanna, but how did you know I have a pink behind?

[M. Brutus]

What a gentleman. Kudos to you for keeping your promise.

[Joy's Focus]

He's so pretty in pink
