Hi Karina,
What a beautiful lake! Did you do something to the colors of the lake? It looks like it's painted. The reflections are marvelous and so is the pink color on the head of the flamingo on the left. Stunning! The fact every flamingo has his/her head turned differently, is very appealing to me.

Hi Karina! Well, again I am not surprised that you made this picture... In my eyes you have a certain signature on you'r pictures of Clearity... This again is like the picture of the Island... So sharp and clear, right now while writing I can only see the bottom (reflection) of the picture.. and even that is very special! I will putt this picture with my favorites...

Very good captured, like the reflection in the water - beautiful colors. How far away were you from the birds ???.

The thumbnail doesn't give this shot Justice. Really soft pink colour, very nice. Was it slightly overcat this day? your setting would suggest otherwise, but the image seems almost foggy. Nice shot, looking forward to more of em'.

What makes this picture really beautiful and stand out.....are the flamingos. They're so elegant and chic on the murky lake. Fab colours too..very soft pink. Well done.

It is so fragile. Beautifull picture.

Very well executed photograph. A compelling photograph in it's simplicity. I would suggest another version cropping out the flamingo on the right... giving you 3 flams. Nonetheless... the 4 flams stand on their own nicely... DOF - very nice.

Ahhh- Great picture again. The colours of your pictures are different to other people's. Again, this should be an ad. Maiko
