Essa foto, a TOP 9 de 2018, foi feita em um dos últimos dias do ano. Passeando pela Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas vi esse biguá (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) bicho comum, pensei em não fotografar, depois de um tempo sentado perto, gostei da posse dele e fui até lá, me surpreendi com a plumagem com cores muito vivas e um percevejo andando em seu pescoço. Fotografei estourando o fundo para o foco ser total na ave e na sua elegância única e acabei adorando a foto. Um lembrete para quando eu pensar em esnobar uma oportunidade fotográfica novamente.

This photo, the TOP 9 of 2018, was taken on one of the last days of the year. Walking by Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon I saw this quite common Neotropical Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus), I thought not to photograph it, but after a while sitting near it, I liked the pose it was displaying and I went there, I was surprised by the plumage with very vivid colors and a bug walking in his neck. I photographed clipping the background aiming to shift the focus of the shot to the bird and its unique elegance.I ended up adoring the photo. A reminder for when I think of snubbing a photo opportunity again.
today: thunder, lightning, torrential downpour. we went from drought to flash flood in a matter of minutes. i snapped this at a red light just as it began to hail.
