Good silhouette, but the bird looks a little out of focus or maybe it's a bit of motion blur.

I have a hard time saying, great shot, partially because I'm sure you know that already. You could possibly win this thing with this shot, I'm really not sure. It is one of my top choices. It is executed flawlessly, but there is something about its composition that throws me off, and I'm not sure what it is. I'd really like to see what a red back drop would of looked like, or maybe blue. It may just be that I have seen several similar shots over the years, but I would never subtract points for that, just simply because of the ever revolving door of talent. The dramatic feel is present, and the execution looks good, the simplicity part is met, whatever it is that is throwing me off eludes me, so I'm bumping it up to my top 5. Great job, good luck.

Under appreciated imho. Gave it a 7. An open eye with catch-light would have scored higher at DPC, even though the flamingo is obviously tucked in for a snooze! Reality in wildlife (or nature as this may be) is of little concern to non wildlife centric DPC voters. Be careful also with overcompressing the JPG, there are jaggies/artifacts developing in the fine feather details.

Beautiful colors, wish the bird was a bit sharper (I know it is hard because you had to use a slow shutter speed and these guys strike really really fast).
