A king attending to his subjects....a flamingo lording it over his flock? Gaggle? Swarm? Hive? This image was taken waiting for hours for the stars to align, the ducks, uhm, birds to get in a row. Camera on trusty tripod.
Ok. Truth. It was a flyby shot. Me in hot pursuit of another target and camera in hand. Then I caught sight of an explosion of pink. And stopped. Took shot, took off again.
Not a bad decision in the end nor a bad shot taking the trajectory of my hand in semi flight mode into account.
