Chilean Flamingo @ Twycross Zoo

First time using a proper camera at my local zoo. Managed to get some decent shots today at Twycross Zoo, including this Flamingo.

Taken with my XH2S & Tmaron 150-500mm

Striking! Did you line up a deep shadow background in camera, or is that edited in post?

Shot against a dark background and slightly underexposed by two stops.

I then dropped the exposure for just the background right down in post, another couple of stops. Raised the exposure of just the flamingo to bring it up to the right level with tweaks for colour and white levels.
