    Default Waking up

    Another image captured earlier on during my holiday in Cape Town. Over previous years visiting this location, I have found a lot of Pelicans, and always active flying around in the early mornings. I unfortunately did not encounter that many Pelicans this time around, but did manage all sorts of poses and a few inflight shots,which I captured later on in my holiday. This pose can only be classified as a 'waking up' pose, taken early morning at the waterworks in Cape Town.

    Hi Stu - Unusual pose and looks like the light was a bit harsh but you handled the exp well. I like the shadow too. Looking forward to seeing more from your trip.

    TFS,
    Rachel
