Giant Flamingo Hauls Nets Tanzanian Coast in in Tanzania

Giant Flamingo Hauls Nets Tanzanian Coast

by Miranda Boyd

Hard coastal glare strikes a deep sea fisherman in a small wooden boat as he hauls heavy nets. Thick plankton haze softens the distant horizon. A flamingo the size of a giraffe wades through the shallow surf beside the vessel. Its pink feathers stand out against the blue water. The bird's massive legs stir the waves, creating ripples that lap against the boat's hull. Sunlight reflects off the wet surfaces of the fisherman's gear and the bird's smooth skin. The shallow depth of field keeps the fisherman and the giant bird's lower legs in sharp focus while the background dissolves into a blur of light and color. A drop of seawater hangs from the end of a net rope.
