    Great shot John, and John did you know that there is a pelican on the harbour at Paphos,Cyprus that will actually pose for photographers?, as soon as it sees you pointing a camera at it it unfolds its wings and ‘displays’

  • John44 replied

    Sounds like my ex Mother in Law…:-)0
    Thanksmuch Kelvin and after your remark I realy !! suspect Greek officials to plant trained Pelicans in all ports, since these guy(s) here did the same..
    I wonder…

    Framing the Pelican to the left adds extra interest to this as does the cruise ship anchored in front of Myconos. Lovely composition! Next time try under exposing a little so you don’t get burn out. : )

  • John44 replied

    Sandy..don’t you ever dare stop give me usefull tips like you do here.I apreciate that
    In fact .. in general people in here are not used to that, but lets be honest.. we can learn so much more keeping each other sharp..
    Ofcourse the clue’s must be grounded.. but your’s are!!
    Welldone
