    The coloring and detail look great Karm! I'm not sure what is happening in the background though? Is that a hull of a boat reflecting the waves?

    Okay Karm, you've got him posing quite well and it's a great shot...next time, could you have your assistant hold a light for his chest area.

    Thanks for the positive comments. Background is water reflections. Not much I could do about them.

    Hi Karm,

    Gorgeous pelican, beautiful focus, detail and colour. When I move it around I like it with a little bit taken off of the top as even though there is less room to move, it provides a nice framing effect for me... Aside I can see a few dust spots in the top left hand corner.

    Thanks Christina. I think you're right about taking a bit off the top. I'll try it. Those are not dust spots. They are water spots on my lens. I'll remove them.
