Nice action moment captured. Love all the water droplets. Well-reacted ! You may consider a slightly tighter crop, other than that no nits from my side. Cheers, Hans
Hi Karl, I really like the water behind the bird and on the beak. well captured take off pose. Nice light. Also nice that the bird seems slightly angled toward us. well done.
Karl, this is a great action catch, with the flying water behind and more water falling from the beak.
Thank you @Allen_Sparks , @Mark_Seaver and @Hans_Overduin
One day, hopefully, I will get a fish in its net
Hi Karl
Love Pelican. Vary good detail, action and framing. You might think about lowering the exposure on the Pelican. It would also be nice to know some of the technical (camera, lens, …)

Thanks @peter
