If you've never seen Brown Pelican's hunt, it's amazing. They fly along, pull their wings in, then dive cranium first into the water. I can just image what it looks like to a fish seeing these guys come at you. The image was interesting to post process. There's lots of detail available in the RAW file but no single exposure setting was giving me detail in both highlights and shadows. I merged two separate photoshop images--one optimized for shadows, the other for the highlights--from a single NEF. The result is this image that has acceptable detail in both the highlights and shadows. I sure with it was brighter to give the image more punch. Oh well. Cheers Tom Hill
