Brown Pelican Head Throw - S.W Florida

This one from last season. I waited for a while for this image. I had my 30D ready and finally the Pelican did it!

Hope you like it.

Canon 30D, 400mm L @ 5.6, 1/2500 sec, ISO 400, Manual Exposure, RAW, Handheld, Almost full frame.

Thank you.

I wish for a little more room at the bottom, and also I wish the image was mine :) I find it Terrific Maxis, Big congratulations!

Wow! What a great depiction of special behavior. Obviously patience pays off. Hand held even! You must have had fast reflexes. No nits from me.

Different take (in a good way!) on a commonly seen bird. Nice sky in bkg is a bonus.

Weird pose but works for me. Ditto space at bottom but great one well done

An angle that most of us will never see. Very different and it works for me.
