It was the week before Valentines day. I was at the Zoo with my kids and this Flamingo was standing where he looked like half a heart.Editing
I took the photo into Photoshop Elements and duplicated it into a new layer. I then flipped that layer and masked off around the Flamingo. I also did some adjustments to saturation and contrast to make it more vibrant.In my camera bag

Spend a lot of time at your local Zoo if they have Flamingos. I go at least once a week and have taken thousands of photos of the Flamingos and have only had a few line up just right to be able to achieve a photo like this.
