Cool Pix P90 - just ordered 2 20"x30" canvas prints of this one - curious to see how they turn out

Just photographed flamingos on the weekend at the Tropical House at our local zoo. Not the richness of color as with the plumage of these birds but I do like the shapes they twist their necks and bodies into when they are either preening or trying to sleep. This image works particularly well in my mind when set against a black background.

Yes this is a good capture, the pattern makes good looks, but so many
birds but could see only one face!

I'll bet the large prints will look great!

Amongst all the feathers one eye is enough. Excellent flamingo photo. They're not as easy to
do well as they might first appear. I try to avoid the leg bands and blank spaces but that's
difficult considering their body shape.

Agree Jeff - the dark bg was helpful - it was tough yelling at those birds to get into formation:-)
