This is one of a series of photos I took during this pelican's takeoff. I like the pose a lot. I'm curious whether the motion blur in the wing is a distraction for viewers.
Thanks for the C&C!

I don't think the motion blur is a distraction at all Michele. You certainly caught a dynamic pose here. Can you bring any more detail out in shadows of the belly and left wing? The bright spot behind the birds right eye is a bit unfortunate IMO, simply because it's so close to the eye.

Nice dynamic pose Michele, regarding shutter speed, I'd be inclined to go a touch slower just to get a definite blur in the wings. Light does seem a bit harsh, perhaps brighten the midtones just a touch.

It was this big the fish that got away.
The blurry motion only adds to the birds speed and movement i also like the eye watchingyoy
