trying not to look like a zoo shot.....I didn't have to do any photoshop cut & paste. there was alot of shade right behind the flamingo so it worked pretty good I think...no??

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    That is a well spotted and superbly captured image.
    I would not have expected to be able to get such an exposure at a zoo.

    It is professional looking too! Except for the bottom right corner. The color down there is distracting to me. I think you just need to add a bit more shadow. What do you guys think?
