Another of the White Pelicans I captured on a recent morning at Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida. I think this one shows off how long the bill is, very difficult for preening. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Detail & PP is looking really good Joe, so now you understand what I have been saying . Techs look good and I see you have a decent SS too, keep it up.
Good stuff Jo. Didn't realise there were so many shades of white ! Yellow and eye very enhancing.
Obviously taken in better light than we,ve got !

Another nice portrait of this species. The details against that blue water is awesome. Well done

Light is magic here. The color tonality, the details in the whites, the preening pose, the blue water....all add up to a fantastic image. Well done, Joe.
