Brown Pelican

[Gary Esman]

Hello, you have to love these guys, but I guess that depends on how you feel about clowns.

7D, 1/2500, iso:250, 500mm, f/5.6.

Comments always welcome

Gary.

Nice work, the head and face sharp, I would have like to see the whole bird but thats just me. I 've never like clowns since seeing the mini-series "IT" by Stephen King

Awesome, even the thumbnail looks beautiful and i like the crop a lot.
lovely BG and nice shooting angle.

I was recently shooting these guys and they are a lot of fun. Looks like he has something big in his mouth. Exposure looks good. I may prefer a bit more room at the bottom as my eye tends to follow his bill down. TFS

Great detail, very sharp. I love the brown BG to go with the pelican. Fine shot.

Hi Gary, excellent detail on the head, sharp, and I do like the various colours. You had enough ss to have stopped down for more DOF, but all depends how close you were. I can see this as a vertical too, and maybe a touch more brightness. :w3Stiil a fine image.

Nice intimate study here with good detail from an appealing angle. Whites seem a tad hot but I didn't pull it into PS to confirm :w3

I second that! Clowns freak me out good! :Whoa!:

A bit tight for my taste, but love the details and exposure.
