Pelicans are gorgeous birds, great capture.

Very good cropping to fit the massive wings in, and seperatly very good photos, aswell as the photo as a whole. Lovely.9 :)

Nice composition and details.
01/11/2008 01:00:50 AM
Wow brilliant photography a 10 from me
01/11/2008 12:34:54 AM
great composition. nice work putting it all together.
01/10/2008 08:26:44 PM
wow...look at that texture on the water surface!
nice, clean composition, with good technicals.
assuming it fits the rules (no way to confirm it without seeing the original sequence) this is another solid 9
01/10/2008 07:36:44 PM
Beautiful image. Great use of movement across the frame and rule of thirds. 9
01/10/2008 12:34:33 PM
You captured some excellent details in the wings, very nice!
01/10/2008 01:42:24 AM
Very crisp and well shot.
01/09/2008 10:52:26 PM
Nice capture. You have excellent focus on each frame here, and I am glad you were able to capture him turning towards the camera. Well done.
01/09/2008 05:51:27 PM
This is wonderful. Beautiful bird and landing.
01/08/2008 12:59:18 PM
Seriously beautiful picture - all sharp and coloured and composed. I think you'll win.
01/08/2008 10:20:57 AM
Well composed with the eye being lead across the diagonal and with the rule of thirds being obeyed in pretty much every respect. The masking around the wings in places could be a little more accurate or at least a touch more feathered
01/08/2008 08:08:31 AM
Nice capture
01/08/2008 04:20:43 AM
good
01/07/2008 11:56:16 PM
Awesome landing. I like what you were able to capture. Great focus!
01/07/2008 11:31:05 PM
Interesting painted effect in the water, and beautiful clarity in the bird. Lovely feather detail.
01/07/2008 11:00:28 PM
Pelican is great, but the water doesn't look natural with the opposing angles
01/07/2008 07:47:20 PM
scalvert: the physics of falling and landing. natural.

GeneralE: splashing is natural.

ursula: oceans are natural.

sher: naturally!
01/07/2008 07:25:23 PM
Very nice detail and a great catch. Back to bump you up to 9.
01/07/2008 07:07:37 PM
If the leftmost bird were a bit further back so it didn't appear to be dining on its own wing this would be a perfect landing.
01/07/2008 06:11:52 PM
Really nice capture! Love the wings and the pattern they make.
01/07/2008 03:15:41 PM
Well done!
01/07/2008 01:50:19 PM
What a gorgeous set of captures!
01/07/2008 01:47:45 PM
nice stop actions, the water went a little funky in the top right, otherwise it looks great
01/07/2008 01:07:04 PM
I like the painting feeling of it
01/07/2008 12:33:49 PM
