Meet The Winners: BirdLife Australia Photography Awards Has Announced The Best Shots Of Australian Birds (71 Pics)
#66 Youth: “Contemplating…” By Jacob Dedman (Shortlist)
“The Australian Pelican is such an elegant bird… maybe not so much when landing and taking off, but still it’s a good-looking bird really. I took this shot at Lake Victoria in Shepparton, about 20 km from where I live in Tatura. The birdlife is quite plentiful there and makes for some great bird photography. I like the lighting in the shot, with the dark background making the bird stand out nicely, as well as some subtle highlights around the head.”
