    That's as red as it gets. This shot worked out all right, though. Did it take some post processing for the red? Posted 13 years ago

      Thanks. The only post processing I did was lowering the exposure in Lightroom. It partly fixed the problem, mostly due to shooting in RAW. Yet still in the highlights you can see a lack of detail due to color over exposure. Posted 13 years ago

The Scarlet Ibis

The Scarlet Ibis is a species of ibis in the bird family ''Threskiornithidae''. It inhabits tropical South America and islands of the Caribbean. In form it resembles most of the other twenty-seven extant species of ibis, but its remarkably brilliant scarlet coloration makes it unmistakable.
