A flamingo at the Adelaide Zoo.
Details: Nikon 105mm 1:2.8 macro, f/4, 1/800s, ISO 200, crop.
I have never seen a flamingo this close. Whoa! They're strange looking. Excellent detail!
His eye looks totally dead, but I love how you can see right through his nostril to the other side....
Thanks for sharing! (I've added you to my blog links, to help share you with the world!)
woah. yeah, his eye does look somewhat odd. cool shot.
Looks like its eye may have a protective 'shield' down - great detail along the partly opened mouth...the 'filters' are quite visible there.
yes quite.....
