Wow T! This is one gorgeous aerial image of this Pelican guy. Beautifully captured.
 
Such a lovely flight shot, Teto - the lighting and detail are excellent.
 
A superb capture Teto! great detail, lighting and expression...well done my friend :t:
 
Many times I think about flight crew of a live plane ... A bird !
Pilot , copilot , flight engineer , engine engineer and radar engineer all are in one small brain of a bird !
Great shot Teto , this flying Pelican is very similar to some kind of planes ! Great shot in all aspects my friend , tfs and many thanks for your kind comments on my shots ;)
