Description
While I was waiting to grab a shot of this Pink Pelican I decided to sit on a fence next to my friend Ilona perhaps under the weight of my backpack two cameras and a new lens it gave way sending me flying backwards... Fortunately for me Ger and Ilona were too busy laughing to capture the moment.... In my defence I never dropped my cameras lol!!

Oh wow! That is one amazing capture!!!! So crisp and full of details. Perfectly exposed as well. I saw the weirdest pelican-shot the other day btw....i think it was from a brittish newspaper actually. A pelican with its bill...beak?..open and a pigeon jumped into it.....after a while the pelican closed and ate the damn pigeon. HE ATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! #:o/ So freaky! Anyhooo....have a great night. #:o)
Not to mention the barrel and a half of Guinness for lunch! Anyway the shot was worth nearly breaking your neck for! Strange big things Pelicans, I watched the news the other night, it showed you the video of a Pelican in a park in London (I think) as it scooped up a pigeon standing on the grass next to it, and swallowed it whole....lovely jubly....It fought and flapped and struggled all the way down its throat for ages ....yuk! Cheers Anthony

Those pelicans show a strange way of beauty.. they are stangly shaped, therefor funny in humans minds.but they keep being what they are.. a very beautiful wonder of nature.. and that is what your picture shows very good.
