James's Flamingos congregate by the thousands on a high-altitude Bolivian lake, bathed in volcanic alpenglow that paints them pink against blue water. These Near Threatened birds thrive at 15,000 feet where few other species can survive, feeding on microscopic algae in waters too alkaline for most life. The panoramic format captures the scale of this gathering, the perfect reflections, the color harmony between birds and water. This is what preservation looks like: life persisting in spectacular numbers where ecosystems remain intact, captured in perfect light.
