Direct to my favorites !

Thank you so much for your comments and favs. Much appreciated.
Nator, I used a Nikon D60 to take this shot, and DW thanks for your words and yeah the owner of the car has a great insurance indeed, hahaha.

What a beautiful bird! And awesome clarity on the picture!!!!

congrats on first place...well deserved

wonderful and energic colours, very nice

Great color and well placed, the beak brings u right through the picture to his eyes. The bokeh only hightens the subject. Great photo, thanks for sharing

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Fantastic focus, the detail of the small feathers is amazing. Great colors, great capture. Excellent job!

love the perspective that u were able to catch this picture at. good focus on the bird, love how u used the wings to bring u into the picture. good exposure not letting the water effect the outcome of the bird. well done

Everything DW sayz...and just incredible detail also, wonderful entry author.

Great shot! Good lighting and composition with some humor. Wish you could read the scale a little better, but that's really minor. GL

WOW fav. for sure

ha ha - that's cute. love the egg scale

Wonderful, great set up and focus

Coming towards you, and it looks mean too with that spear-like beak ! Nice photo!

gorgeous shot, well done =)

great color, exposure and use of rule of thirds... nice shot

nice shot - great colour and composition

good shot, I like composition

Duckweed, the green stuff this pelican is swimming in makes for a wonderful emerald colour backdrop for this fine subject. (if you have an aquarium with gold fish, duckweed is also a wonderful fresh fond source they will gobble down and grow bigger from).
I really like the diagonal line your subject leads in from as it parts the weed moving closer. It seems to add to the feeling of motion.
Good Job!
