Flamingo flying on the Ukrainian flag

Flamingo flying on the Ukrainian flag I chose this photo of the flamingo in flight, on a background that recalls the colors of the Ukrainian flag, out of solidarity with this population in these sad days. Nikon D200, Nikon 300mm, f / 5.0, 1 / 750sec, ISO 250. Thanks for your comments.

Very bad crop. Ugly colors, unsharp and gritty.

The important thing, here, is your lovely gesture of solidarity with the people of Ukraine, made in the way a photographer should. It may not be, technically, the best of your many excellent photographs of flamingos, but that is hardly the point. Nearly everyone will understand and appreciate your gesture. Ignore the rest. Michael

Hi Giangiorgio,

 

I can certainly appreciate this gesture, even it's clearly not one of your best photos. I'm glad you speak of 'this population'; there are many people who suffer from this situation. Kind regards, Vincent

Thank you so much Vincent for your much appreciated comment and solidarity with this suffering population , ciao Giangiorgio
