the pelicans were active this sunday afternoon at boynton beach and i was able to PHOTOGrRapH some of them!! i kinda liked this one and was wondering what everyone else thought about it.

thanks for looking and eager to hear what you think.
Also agree about adding just a wee bit of space on the top, to give Mr. Pelican more room for flight...:D Love the details and colors on both the bird and the background...:cool:
Agree with Lance on the room up top for the wing tip
Love the wing spread and soft light If anything might increase the contrast just a tad but is mostly personal choice Sure would like to check that place out Looks like a good alternative btw how do you manage with the east wind in the afternoon?
east wind was not bad. i could not believe the action at that place. i had been there before but not for birding, fishing. the wind today is suppose to turn and come from the SW then NW later. i will be back there this afternoon with bigger glass!! it was a lot of fun.
thanks for all the kind words. i knew it needed some canvas up top, but decided to post it anyway. NEED PS!!! NEED PS!! one day:o
Awsome detail and contrast my friend.
Missed you this Sunday at Green Cay. It was a great time with Alfred and got a chance to meet Arthur Morris. And lots of birds too!!!!!
Regards,
You have nice underwing details and the light is not harsh. The wing-tip clip is not a big thinkg to fix and add canvas at the top. I bit more of a head turn would be nice as he is facing a bit away from you.
A local contrast enhancement on a background copy using USM at 20-60-4 would make this POP. Vary amounts to your liking.
