    Love the panorama crop and the open bills. The BG and mountains in the back are really nice. I would sharpen the front bird's head a bit.

    it's an interesting shot with wide respective, pelicans look soft because of heavy compression (your file is just 99KB)

    Great use of wide angle and nice poses/head angles on front birds!

    Too tight at the top for me both for the pelican heads and the mountain tops.

    Agree with Arash ...looks a bit soft . But a very innovative POV . Would be tempted to try and get the exposure up by a stop .

    I think that you have been to Lake Kerkiini in Greece. And I think that you need to learn to process your images better as we teach in Digital Basics. Nice timing and poses but needs more room above as others noted. Lots done for the repost: NIK Color Efex Pro Tonal Contrast, brightened by pulling the Curve up, a 50% Robert O'Toole Color Balance adjustment, sharpened. All but the NIK stuff is covered in Digital Basics.

    Hello Arthur
    thanks for your tips.
    Ok it is Lake Kerkini
    I have your Digital Basic....
    About the room ..it is a medium crop..; I have space up and at left ..(also at right but there are more pellicans and I would like draw attention at the action..)
    I also used Nik pro 4 Tonal Contrat but I reduced it 50%.

    YAW. You actually have to study and practice :). Thanks for your purchase. In short, your original post was way too dark. And you need to add back some sky above. From ABP II: if an element is worth including in the frame, you need to include the whole thing with a nice border.

    Much better. Now all that you have to do is level it :).
