A group of flamingos gracefully wades through shallow water, their bright pink feathers contrasting with the dark surface of the pond. The lighting creates reflections and subtle color variations on the water, enhancing the serene scene. The elegance and poise of the flamingos draw the viewer’s attention. © 2025 By Chris Mercer All Rights Reserved https://pixels.com/profiles/chris-mercer https://www.viewbug.com/member/chrismercerimages Christopher Mercer Art - Fine Art America Christopher Mercer Art - Pixels Original File Name: Flamboyance (Flamingo (2025-08-02) (5))

Good morning 👋. Although in most cases it is not recommended to take #photos during extremely sunny conditions, sometimes it cannot be helped 😰. While at a mid-morning #AmericanFlamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) #photo shoot in at #zoomiami, the sun was already up and scorching 😜. The logic tells to have the sun in front of the subject and behind the camera which in some cases can be achieved by repositioning yourself 😉. The camera sensor will beg for light so it is logical to decrease the size of the aperture by increasing the f-stop value. But in this case I tried a bit of a reversal of the rules. I increased my aperture size while also increasing the shutter speed since I originally wanted to capture 'action scenes'. That still limited the amount of light reaching the sensor so it gave the photo a bit of sense of underexposure, thus giving the subject's colors some intensisity and overall contrast gallore 🙌. Depending on the situation, I do prefer an image that is more dark and sudued over a bright and vivid one 😌. So, what do you think about this photo of a #flamingo? Your comments are most welcomed below 👇. #NikonD7200 , #Nikon300mm, f/5.3, 1/250s, ISO 100.
