The reason it took so long is because of the low quality.

Yep, it's really fabulous! Light and vivid pink, nice contrast.

the colour is to vivid IMO, and some parts of the birds seem to have been missed.

Friiskiwi, I bumped up the saturation so the pink would have more notice and it's not against the rules and was quite useful in this particular type of contest. The parts of the flamingos missing are the parts that weren't pink. I do believe that is the object of selective coloring. The legs were green and parts of the flamingos were also green. Try selective coloring yourself and you will see you get the same results.

I wasn't suggesting that your were off topic, only giving an opinon on the photo., didn't mean to offend.

Aw WTF??! It wasn't that bad. Once again, the majority votes like old people screw......

my mother always said to watch the ones that r bightly colored, great shot

It's a shame the focus could not have been better.
