Two flamingo's, looking for food together.
What will they find in the setting sun?
These flamingo's were part of a large group. They were all walking along the surf in the setting sun. Looking for something edible.
The wind was blowing pretty hard, and it showed in the waves and the foam on them and the water.
There was beautiful light, the flamingo's body has a golden edge because of that beautiful light.
It was a beautiful moment because the birds had almost the same pose while taking the picture.
This is not on a Dutch beach, the photo was taken during my trip to Namibia, where we actually wanted to go to a lighthouse first, but when you see flamingo's by the sea they are preferred anyway.
It is a joy every time I see this picture, you can almost feel the warmth of the sun.
While taking the photo, I was quite a distance away on the beach, moving was not an option because otherwise the birds would get scared. The strong wind meant I could only rely on my camera, often I could not see much because of the sand blowing into my eyes, which in turn caused tears.
Photography is a hobby that got out of hand, I love nature and like to capture nice, beautiful and special moments. Reminder of a beautiful moment or emotion to be able to experience that again later. A number of photos are already hanging on my wall at home,.. Read more…
