Following from last week's image and critique, I went out this weekend to shoot for more animal photography. Couldn't find any decent ducks, instead I found pelicans.

#1

Also need help choosing one of the following 3.

#2

#4

Perhaps too much white space with the #2?

Thanks Julian.

This is up at Central Coast no more than 90km Sydney. A nice weekend drive along the lakes from Woy Woy to Terrigal and onto the Entrance. At the Entrance, there's a pelican feeding 3.30pm every day. If you want those great close up shots, get there earlier to sit up the front. Great fish and chips there while you wait :) . Don't head home straight away, go a few kms north a bit more and wait by the lake side for the sunsets.

I like #3. The pano format suits it well, heaps of birds and no extra water or sky. Portrays the crowd at feeding time. Colours have come out really well. Nice photo.
