Alone we stand

I was looking for a single Greater Flamingo standing to capture an eye level shot. Being on a boat it was challenging to hand hold and get usable capture. The light was good to use high shutter speed but the distance to the subject was far, needing heavy crop from original to isolate other distractions.
Appreciate your comments…

I played around with the white balance to achieve the tone and brighten the subject using the masking tool in LRC. But I wanted only the Sun in the background and the…
