The Busy Life of Bob the Flamingo

 For Jasper Doest, part of the appeal of photographing Bob's life with his cousin was images like these, where a bright pink American Flamingo sticks out of a mundane human situation like a sore thumb. "I don?t really like to take images where nature is being made fun of," he says. "It's really funny to see a flamingo in a car, of course, but there's a deeper meaning in those images."
