Uh... took me about a minute to find the flamingo. It's an ok idea, but very poor implementation, mostly technically. Sorry.

Interesting photo. A better crop and focus on the flamigo would make it.

Like what you're going for here. A close-up of the flamingo would have really given it punch. Could you get to a porch and do a long shot with the flamingo in focus? A telephoto maybe? Funny photo! Would like to see who lives there.

A little out of focus, and a flat DOF. But I like the subject in the pic.

Can't let life get you down - Gotta have a whimsical spirit no matter where you are right?

I guess that this is a very run down nieghborhood, which is systematic of poverty. there desn't seem to be a single focal point on it though which lets it down.

This one seems out of focus, and the point of interest is almost like a "where's waldo" kind of thing.

The title of your photo only represents a minute detail in the actual photo itself. Focus seems a bit soft too. But it does yield a good representation of poverty.
