2 Frames of a Flyer

I woke up at 6:30 a.m., and decided to sneak out to the sunrise.

I was shooting some pelicans in the sun's reflection...when I heard the blue heron approaching the dock. WHAM! BAM! I switched my focus quickly, and was lucky to get 2 shots of the incoming shorebird.

It was a very peaceful morning with the only thing coming between me and the birds being 4-5 early fishermen with boats.

We forced  talked Al and Shelley into going to the ladies swim class at 9 a.m. It was me, Al, and 10 women. (You gotta like those odds!) They both liked the workout, and a lady named Sheila took a liking to Al, and helped him with the water exercises. 

My favorite pelican shot of the morning (a takeoff) is in the Extras.
