That is a very dramatic shot Jim. At first glance I thought he was landing in snow, then I realized it was surf. What an exposure challenge!

Well...
Looking at that I'd say, I dare someone to say the 10D is unable to handle fast speeds...
That's an incredible shot!
Great timing, exposure, etc.! You did a fabulous job on that one Jim! :D
Really like that!

Great shot Jim!! We have plenty of the brown pelicans, but the white ones only migrate through here. Thanks for sharing.
