Beautiful shot, Carolyn! Not that this image is grainy by any means but if possible I would have switched to ISO 200 because of the high SS.

Love the pose and that BG!

Thanks for sharing!

Don't see the need for ISO 400 here, but I love the comp. Very nice.

Great head-throw! Must be celebrating a good copyright settlement.

A great behavior shot, Carolyn!
Like the comp and the color of the bird and deep blue bg complement each other well ...

Love the tight composition and the wonderful light. Looks like La Jolla light to me. Maybe slightly oversharpened.

A different pelican shot for sure. I'm with Mike that one less pass of sharpening would have probably been enough. Beautiful work.

Regards,

Terry
