Judges' comments:
Very unique; great stop action; could crop some off the bottom where water is not in focus
Maker's notes:
Canon 7D Mark II - Settings were ISO 800, f/9, 1/1000 sec, Manual Exposure, Spot Metering at 300mm. I consider myself "lucky" for getting this Brown Pelican diving headfirst, just as it was entering the water. Brown Pelicans always dive headfirst when attempting to get their "meal".
