Ahhh...I love these birds, they make me feel like I'm seeing something from prehistoric times! Great shot, interesting to use blue instead of sepia...it worked well.

Gotta love pelicans. They are such accommodating subjects!!
Jim Stone08-Jan-2010 02:57
I've seen brown pelicans but blue pelicans must be pretty rare. Nice catch

fantastic landing shot!

My first thought was Ralph Macchio in "The Karate Kid" when he was doing those poses on the pilings. Great timing to capture this.

Perhaps it is the pelican who was chased away from my fish shop? Nice action capture.
Barbara Heide08-Jan-2010 00:06

What's this pelican eating? It's turned him blue!

He seems to be frozen in flight! LOL V
