Flamingo Portrait

This photograph is particularly interesting to me. Seeing two things in one turns on the lightbulb in my head. Who ever thought of painting themselves or someone into looking like a flamingo had a special way of thinking. Not only are they painted to look like a flamingo, but their stance is in the shape of a flamingo's body. The persons arm is the neck and the head of the flamingo, and the hand is the beak. The person's legs are painted white like the background and then thin flamingo legs are drawn to look like the ones from an exact flamingo. Funny enough this flamingo is also standing on one leg.
