At dawn there is a magical moment , that does not last long, when the

oblique rays of the rising sun make sparkling with golden highlights

the traces of flamingos. The photo was taken from the top of a hill

overlooking the lagoon of Cagliari at the distance of about one kilometer

Dear Giangiorgio, this shot is great for me.

It is even more challenging than the lonely walking of the flamingo, because here's there's a challenge for interpretation.

 

The first impression when looking at the image, is the desire to put all the pieces together ... like a puzzle unassembled yet.

 

Finally, I believe they are stars, in a quiet, sweet and soft summer night. Would there be anything more beautiful than a starry sky?

Well, yes ... different flamingos in the Cagliari Lagoon at dusk, seen and felt by G. Crisponi ...    ; )

 

A truly masterpiece!

Congrats, and keep surprising us!

 

Kindest regards, Laura
