Drying Off


eric_larson1

Taken with 300mm lens. Hand held. Pelican was swimming about and intermittently shaking off the water. I waited for a while until he finally swam through a small shaft of sunlight that had made its way through the trees. I snapped off this shot.

I watched this pelican swimming on a lake for quite some time. He was randomly shaking

the water off of his wings. The sun was shining through some trees in the late afternoon,

and occasionally he swam through this shaft of sunlight. It took awhile, however, to catch

him swimming through the sunlight and shaking off at the same time.

Wonderful dynamism and sentiment. I bit too high contrast for my taste. I want to see something in the eyes of the bird (not a black spot). But beatiful. 6/6.

Slight blur on the wings adds a lot to this shot. Very nice!! Thanks for sharing. ;-)
