 Shot 3 pictures of a pelican getting up for a feed. Used Hypersnap to cut out the appropriate sections of the photos and pasted the 3 photos into a white background in hypersnap.

Tall buildings in the background are the city of Brisbane. Smoke can be seen of a big factory fire. In the right frame you can make out the news helicopter.

Good capture of the flight. Horizon looks tilted. Focus might be a little soft or noisy.

Shame you didn't get that gaps the same width. Not a big deal, just a little distracting. Good shots, though.

Nice sense of motion, and transition from standing to flying. Maybe a bit too blue on the cast.

The last frame cutting off the end of the pelican is hugely distracting. The first two shots are great though.
