    Sacred Ibis

    Foraging on a fresh water lagoon in Kenya , the floating plants completely covered the water and every so often you would see a section of them lift out of the water as a Hippo came up for some air.

    Pretty bird. Wondering if you tone down the floating plants a bit, should help in getting the Ibis to be more of the focal point as my eyes want to focus on the plants instead of the Ibis. Just a thought Steve.

                Interesting bird and good detail. As Tom suggested perhaps reduce the luminance on green to reduce the distraction.
