Departing

Busy week back at work - lots of catching up to do.

Rather like this image of pelicans departing into the distance.  Could not believe it when they organised themselves nicely in the frame.

Click went the shutter.




This was another shot I took while on a trip to Mud Islands, just off the coast from Queenscliff.

You can find more shots of the sky at Sky Watch Friday.
