I came across this photograph while browsing The Guardian this evening, and viewed full size, it just about blew the screen off my laptop. It’s easy to see why Pedro Jarque Krebs, Peru, won the top prize in the 2018 Bird Photographer of the Year competition. Click the image to see it with a black background, where it really pops. Click the option below, right, for a larger image.
The Guardian’s gallery displays all the winners in a real feast for the eyes of both photographers and bird lovers. I urge you to check it out.
For more spectacular photos by Krebs, see his website.
That it truly mind blowing, I’m going to send it to Ruby she has a thing about flamingoes
The color is just delicious. So intense!
The photos on his website are absolutely stunning
He’s a master of dramatic lighting, isn’t he.
They are all beautiful but I love the one of the birds diving underwater.
That one took some work. Interesting how those birds look underwater. Like some sort of sea creature.
Beautiful! I love them!
Thought of you the minute I saw them.
