Nice picture and composition. You could slightly desaturate or maybe blur (a bit more) the flamingo in the BG to improve the contrast. Also, there is some chromatic aberration around the edges of the second flamingo.

Maybe I was a little too hard with saturation. I will try your suggestions by occasion :) Thank you for your comments :)

Nice picture - I really love the colors!
I think, they are not too strong - surely stronger than in reality, but that is actually what I like about the picture; however, in my opinion, it could use a little bit more flamingo pink instead of red. :)

Indeed, they had a strong colour in reality, but I made it a little stronger in saturation. Thank you for your comment :)

The saturation seems just right. What I meant was, it is very nice how the curves of the body of the second flamingo and the first flamingo's head match. But the head blurs into the body of the second flamingo. So I'd want to de-emphasize the second flamingo a bit so that the first flamingo head is more prominent. That's all I meant.

Okay, I misunderstood your message. I´ll try to work with it and see what happens. Thanks again :)
