[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this photo off a pelican couple making exercises during our visit on Mykanos Greece.
It was actually a little bit funny, because I think it was the most photographed couple on the hole island, the photographers was cuing to get access to the best POV.

Nice quality, love Canon.
Well done!

Hi Jens,

Excellent POV. Very well captured the pelican in action. Fine detail and very sharp picture. Well done.

Tfs,

Hi, it is a fun shot, they look as though they're preparing for take off. Regards, Jean

Hi Jens,
Very sharp shot, nice POV and DOF... You've managed to perfectly capture the pelikans "keeping fit"... Nice job! Marta

Interesting composition and definition with a suitable title.Congrats!

Good morning, Jens.
A really gorgeous photograph.!
Excellent point of view you had here. How many photographers you had to push away, you said ? haha
Really perfect. 10 points from me.
Cheers, Jan
ps. Just see, the one in front is also 'tap dancing'.!!!

Hi Jens,
like the clarity and POV of your image.
very beautiful details of the pelicans while the wings are open...
very nice colors..

Hello Jens,

Very nicely captured pelicans. Good action, POV and colors here. TFS

Vandana

Hi Jens
again a bulls eye shot, pelican eye shot in this case
You captured tis in a good angle and on the happy moment, before they fly away ..
Ofcourse I noticed them too.. but we made this solid agreement in Mykonos about who is doing what ..If you forgot , go to my last upload and you will remember again :-)
Jens: Great shot, spot on! TFS

John

I love this one, Jens - and I have to laugh - right now I read the story of John - the deal with the birds and the ladies - your part with the birds is also very nice, I like it.
I'm happy to have you here at TL now, so it was a good idea of you to ask John for a nice Photo-Forum ;-) Also very nice is Trek-Nature, perhaps you already had a look there?!?
Bye and greetings
Sabine - wishnugaruda

ps
Funny note about john and you

Hi Jens,

A very nice POV, giving your composition more impact , lovely play with lighting and shadows, very sharp and great detail. Your timing was perfect and all together compose a great photo! I am glad to meet a friend of John and I hope we will become friends too!
TFS,
Vassilis

Great POV, lovely colours (whites nicely exposed) and good composition - I'd say that you did a great job in capturing this and so your queuing was well worth it!
Thanks for sharing
Mark

As it used to be said: no comment. :) Absolutely great.

Hi!
Nice picture with good colors and fine contrast.
I love such animals!They´re really funny.....
Tfs,Jonas

Hey Jens!

Someone exercising? you make me conscious and guilty for being lazy...well the shot is amazing no doubt but the island where these pelicans were spotted has a funny name! "hole island"? :D
Just kidding its just a typo. Feel free to criticise me in return hehe!
Congrats once again :D
Cheers!

Hello Jens,
Beautiful white pelicans, and nice job catching this one just stepping off his perch. I saw many pelicans on our recent trip to North Carolina USA, but none with this beautiful coloring. Great detail, and nice job elbowing your way in for the best POV!
All the best,
Karen

HI Mr Jens, I have a weakness for Mykonos and pelicans. so you deserve at least 2 points.
Best, janos
