A gorgeous Wildlife image !
Excellent stop-action and detail, but it is the specular highlights and rich, fluid hues, contrasting against the darker, more linear composition of the pelicans and, their display of freedom in flight, that make this image so appealing.
Congratulations on another fine addition to your already impressive gallery !

Excellent image! Gorgeous!
