The colors could be a bit more vibrant; that said, were there not so many other GREAT shots in this challenge, this would easily be a "10."

I like this shot..... pelicans are such ancient looking birds - the background is reminiscient of old color photographs

only thing - a small thing - is the lack of definition on white feathers on back, beautiful capture

Good capture, but somwthing seems incomplete in this picture.
Either it is the composition or background or whatever

Birds in flight are so difficult to capture so this is a great result

Beautiful well composed

Wonderful timing! If only your DOF had been a bit more shallow - a more blurred background would help the pelican to "pop". 8

The background is distracting but good job capturing the whole bird in flight like this.
