Hello Selen,

are you sure this is a Pelican and not a pterydactal?! An amazing looking bird caught beautifully, the details are fantastic and the action created by the water splash is great too. Great shot.

Hi Selen,

The pelican looks imperial. At such a wingspan, taking off must be a difficult thing to do. Also difficult can be to take such a good photo like yours in such moments.

Cheers, Petru

Hello Selen,
Great action shot of a Galapagos Brown Pelican taking off. Wonderful lighting, sharpness and detail, including water drops. From this POV the wings add immensly to the composition in this full frame shot.
TFS and hve a good week!

Hi Selen,
Looks like he fits fine :)
I like most the POV, pose, and timing as the big guy kinda bounces along for landing..
Sharp & detailed, great DOF.
I have to tell you that I prefer this version over the WS, much more natural looking. I think center-weighted average would be better here also.

Wow, I am impressed with the sharpness of this image. Great capture! I have the same lens and basically the same camera and I don't think I could have done as well. I think that the fact that you weren't fully extended helped along with that fast shutter speed. Nice work.

I want to know who gave it that awful subspecies name...

The action is frozen perfectly and it is beautifully sharp.

hello Selen

superbe photo de ce pelican qui couvre toute l'image
avec ses ailes grandes ouvertes, bon focus,
j'aimes le détails de tout ce splash de l'eau
et surtout de son oeil qui a le regard vers toi

bravo pour cette photo et merci pour le partage

Hi Selen, Wonderful close up of this huge-looking bird. A agree with Paul it has a distinct pterydactal look about it! Good timing for this full wing shot. Murray.

Merhaba,
Bu sekilde zar zor siginca, gerçekten de tarih öncesinden kalma devlerden biri gibi görünüyor. Keskinlik, renkler ve kanatlar açikken yakalaman mükemmel. Tebrikler.

Hi Selen

I actually saw this splendid photo back home, in my last day there, but i really didn't have any time for any words then.
It's simply a fantastic capture taken at an impecable timing - both at the contact with the water as well as with the position of its big wings.
The sharpness is exceptional and the DOF is perfect - keeping the entire pelican in full focus.
Lovely colors and beautiful composition, as well.

Bravo and TFS
