Hot Flamingos – St. Louis Zoo – CSI Miami Processing

Now I did not use an Adobe Lightroom preset which mimics the gaudy effects of CSI Miami, but if I recorded and fiddled with the settings on these photos I bet I could create one. Yes, I know that flamingos don’t really need any help in appearing startingly gaudy, but then my guess is that neither does Miami. If you are totally clueless as to what I am talking about, check out the opening clip to the show which highlights the sort of intense color tints they added to their shots. I had fun mimicking it here, I think to some dramatic effect.

Icarus or Dassler Can Even Manage to Find a Dead Bird in Chicago

OK, this picture is a bit morbid. I guess it could be another existential movie poster. But I saw this floating bird and simply had to try to capture it. And it was pretty difficult as it was in a little patch of garbage and feathers which was moving with the choppy swell. I think I might have an even better version, but you will have to wait for it. I bet you can hardly contain your anticipation.
