I'd managed to expose him correctly

[seaslug]

I like it as you've done it!

[P Plates]

Thanks Seaslug. I've had heaps of failed bird in flight shots and my first thought was damn he looks sharp and I forgot to change the exposure when I swung the camera skyward.

"if only I'd managed to expose him correctly''
go the other way and make a h/contrast silhouette; good photo to do it

[P Plates]

Thanks Ian - might have another play with it

this is how i can see it

I still like the original best.

But you still got a lovely image P Plates, the silhouette looks excellent, I quite like Ian's suggestion too, you could have lots of fun with this.

Works great as a sillouhette PP, especially with three pelicans and the way the two outermost have wings up while the middle on has wings down.

I reckon if anything, I'd play with the sky tones to make it seem more like the dusk/blue hour. I get terrible pixels when I tried so left it like so.

that could be made very likeable Jo
