This was taken at Homosassa Springs State Park. I took about 80 shots of the Flamingos that day. I wanted a certain pose and it took forever to get 1 to cooperate.

Nice contrast between the flamingo's color and the b/g. I'm trying to put my finger on why the composition doesn't quite work for me - I think it's because the eye is very close to the right edge.
