pelican wingstretch

[avkomp]

from yesterdays session at lake belvedere, this guy sat there doing nothing for ages but then finally did some stretching, cracked off a burst and got wings at various angles,
this was the only one that got all the wings in, and then only just.

Not usually a bird person but I do like pelicans. This is a great image.

Great catch for the time you had. Focus is very good, colours are very natural. I would not usually CC your work, as you have a lot more skill than myself, but IMHO a bit more on the sides makes all the difference.

I was going to comment favourably on the light, but wished it wasn't so tight ...

Thanks for adding the canvas. Considered doing it (I really did) but got lazy. I agree more room lifts it too.

Content Aware Scale. A fabulous tool!
