Great capture of this pelican, enjoying the quietness of the blue lake. Clarity of details, even capturing the reflections. Love the way you've captured the eye and the long beak. Framing and technical skills, high five. Well captured.

What a gorgeous photograph. Technically a super shot..focus is super..the bird is rendered with such clarity and detail. The mirror image of the bird in the water is fabulous. Set against the dark-coloured water it makes for a striking image. Super job!!
