by fixing in a different angle I could get this image.
thanks for every one for views, faves, and comments.
This close up photo of a Greater Flamingo shows the head and beak in a little more detail than my landscape images of them.
Greater flamingos have a unique beak that makes the diet different from many other species. They have a shallow spine that helps them filter the bait. They also have a filtration and pumping system in the beak, making it the most advanced bird filter feeder.
This photo was taken outside Arles in the south of France.
-Phoenicopterus roseus
RKO_3664. Close-up shot of a beautiful Bittern. Actually, I knew she was somewhere nearby in the reeds, but I couldn't find her due her camouflage feathers. Surprisingly the Bittern left the reeds (very relaxed) just in front of me allowing for some quick close-up shots.

A Lesser flamingo (Phoenicopterus minor) was caught into a perfect frame while foraging under a muddy salty wetland. They are the natural feeder on algae and diatoms of extreme salty water bodies. In fact their pink colour comes from the pigments of symbiotic bacteria residing in their food. I had to wait inside the muddy wetland for three long hours on my knee with a camouflaged tele in monopod just for their intimacy. After such wait one of them approached and to my pleasure it became a success for me. The rest of group members were blurred into a artistic bokeh by my Nikon prime.The backdrop pastel pink color bokeh rendered the charm of this portrait. Pics was taken from Little Rann of Kutch, Gujrat, India.
The Samyang 6.3/300 mirror reflex lens (450mm on my camera sensor) is actually a long tele lens, but in my kind of photography it works very well for close-ups too. Fixed at F6.3, the lens allows me to focus on minute details.
Anoter view of the late blooming Hibiscus in our garden. . Love how the pistils and stamen stand out.

No wonder orchids have become so popular. Once considered difficult to keep, I now have two that seem to be happy in their current position.
I love the intricate composition and have taken many macro shots of the interior, but as this one was illuminated in the morning sunlight coming through the window, I could see an angel emerging.
2nd image in the series.

Almost a macro image of this magnolia flower (done with the Samyang mirror-reflex lens fixed at F6.3). Because the light has to travel in a different way (two mirrors and refractive lenses) the image is 'softer'.
