The color detail and focus on this bird is spectacular. This can be an ugly pose, I've done it....but you captured it beautifully. The lighting is perfect, very little shadow, wonderful...I've been trying to get a tern or a seagull, they are very hard to capture, because no pun intended, but they can be very flighty, one minute you have them and the next minute they're gone...I love your birds Marcus, and I'm not at all bothered by the desaturation of the background, if anything I think it brings even more attention to this exciting bird....Outstanding! :) Linda

well I use to shoot landscapes and portraits for years, I became like work to me, so I started shooting wildlife, then I found bird to be very challenging and fun, so I have stuck with it. I have had 5 shots go to press, for American wildlife Calendar company. and some misc awards from different contests, but the UF crew dosent show me much love LOL.... take care....

This shot is so unbeluevable I'm totally lost for words Marcus. I'm in full agreement with Steve Tomkinson on this. You just keep pushing the boundaries further and further away. Just keep it up cos we all enjoy seeing the results.

Love the special effect you've done to the background. It really emphasizes the sharpnes of the Pelican. Beautiful capture. Now, did he get the fish?

Just when I thought you couldn't get any better, you raise the bar so high I have to look straight upwards to see it...
Amazed there's no motion blur at 1/500... Think I need to move to California, the laws of photography, and physics seem to be so much better there.... 8 out of 7 my friend.

Timing is everything...or with that set-up, which I also have, its 5 fps and hope for the best, lol! Excellent stop action before the plunge...I have some in flight but not when they are ready to hit. Colors and clarity are super and you were blessed with great lighting. Nicely done! Regards, Jim.
