I had the privilege to shoot flamingos taking off. i live really close to the sea, where these beauties stay during their journey. shooting was really hard, they just fly away as soon move toward them, even before i come close. the 400 mm was really not enough reach.
Very nice captures Mohamed I have never seen flamingo's takeoff so, thanks for posting it. BTW were these taken in Abu Dhabi? If it is that would be another first for me.
Really like the walking on water effect of #2 running toward the light. Great job and thanks for posting new species that are not usually seen on this forum in the wild.

I saw the title Mohamed and thought 'what could be so interesting about that' Kind of looks like a high hurdler with wings! Man you got some very sharp shots and documented the running start very well. Nice color rendition on the flamingos and that last sunset is stunning, beautiful.
