This image was created this morning in LaJolla with the handheld Canon 400mm f/4 IS DO lens and the EOS-50D. ISO 200. Evaluative metering at zero: 1/1000 sec. at f/6.3. Pretty much straight out of the camera; no crop.
Don't be shy; all comments welcome.

Nice! I love the BG color very much. I like the composition and the pose. Details and colors look great. The best part-It was composed in-camera and of course the Alfalfa hairdo!
Great colors and feather details, these birds can give really good facial expressions.
With the bill pointing down I can see this as vertical composition too.
Love the comp and hairdo. Beautiful colors and sharpness and only suggestion can offer is a tad boost on the contrast for the Pele. Can see why you love that place.
Great image-good control of the exposure--in what looks like bright light. I love the variety of coool poses that can be presented with the pelicans. Hope to see some myself someday!
