Pelican Passing

Cortez Village FL

I've been working on trying to catch some flying birds as sharp as possible. Its difficult to get the speed up and maintain the light. This is the closest I've gotten so far. Still room for improvement. Luckily here at Cortez Fishing Village all you do is stand and wait, they fly by quite regularly.

Well the shutter speed is appropriate and I think you did well with this image. It seems sharp to me. Have you been practicing panning to follow the bird and let the background blur? It takes practice but when you succeed it results in a nice image. You stopped this one in its tracks.
