I wish I could have got closer to the pod of Pelicans I just photographed E~. This is positively outstanding.
The clarity is so good it makes the textures pop.
I love pelicans.... they are amusing, busy and have an air of knowing something no-one else knows. (I always wonder what it is). Wonderfully clear shot and in a somewhat unusual pose. Very nice!
Either this guy is used to people or you've got an excellent long-range lens. Whatever the case, it's another great bird shot to add to your collection. I agree with Sharon in that it's not the run-of-the-mill pelican photo, a seemingly posed shot, but one that shows the bird in real life. Does NG know about you? :D
Wow this is out of this world it is stunning.The colours and detail is a 100%It going to take me years to get that good.Brown Pelican it as it all in colours lol.
People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative.

Wow he is a beauty. I love these birds. Ours are a little different. You have done a fine job capturing this one. Good compostion and detail. Nicely done. Lyn.
Superbly captured, Elizabeth! I absolutely love the details in the Pelican's wet feathers, and his watchful eye, as well as his pose! Excellent work! Faved.
So different to my pelicans, which I see every day. They always gather at the boat ramp near my home to scavenge the leftovers from fisherman or ride the thermals on the hill behind my house - different colours - same beautiful birds!
