I just happened to luck across some bird wings this morning on my trip to the beach. I just love to see the pelicans flying in formation as they effortlessly soar across the sky. This was a small formation of only two, but still great to see them fly right over me. I was shooting sunrise landscapes, so only had the small 24-70mm lens on my camera today. Still caught them in flight and happy with just a light crop.
Here's my entry for this weeks SMAP contest of wings!
I caught just a few other shots of them, as you can see below.
Flying pelicans are always great and I must say I love to watch them soaring with grace.
Wonderful choice for an entry!
Very nice shots! They sure do seem very graceful. More than they look when they are on the ground anyway!
Thanks, Yes it's amazing how they just glide and glide like a large plane coming in for landing.
a pair of birds in flight, very beautiful. nice shot👍
Thanks, these must be some of the easiest to get a BiF shot of the way they just glide so slowly!
Flying birds are nice to see. You are a bird lover, I am also. Amazing photography
Yes, I certainly love taking photos of all the different birds here. Never gets boring to me.
