I was hanging out with 2 pelicans at the Indian River today trying to catch them in flight and diving for fish. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this one.

I was fully zoomed in and in motion so it's not as clear as I'd like. And there was a lingering foggy moisture in the air that lasted all day. it was a very cool day for pics here in Central Florida :D

Hard to get your best shot in those conditions. But you got the pelican in flight! Good for you.
