[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
...the young brown pelican finally gave up his attempts to take off... the breeze from the ocean was not strong enough, and besides, the runway was too short.
He turned his head and gave me the Eye as a sign that the photoshoot was over. I waved goodbye and continued my walk along the beach at Padre Island National Seashore, TX

Bravo pour cette photo, le sujet est très net

Hello Tage

Magnificent shot. Very good light. Details are sharp and clear. POV is spot on. Stands out nicely against the out of focus background. Well done. Good work. Thanks.

Another excellent photo of the pelican Tage. He was a good model for you. I love his pose on his own little hill. Good sharp details and colours. Well shown, thank you.

Superbe prise la pose de l'oiseau et la netteté sont excellent.

Félicitations !

Hello Tage
Just a superb shot. Great compositon, exposure and tack sharp. You can almost count each of his feathers.
