Great action and the pelican stands out nicely from that background

Very cool looking species of Pelican Ken...never seen one before.Those yes sue are something! Nice wing position in this and I like the training water. I do find myself wishing the angle was ever so slightly turned toward the viewer, but this is pretty close to parallel that is still works.
