Want to Photograph the Head Throw of the California Brown Pelican? This is what you can expect: head throws visualized via animated GIF images. The head throw is a cool maneuver and a challenge to photograph well, with a clean background and nothing intruding in from the edges of the frame. I shot these sequences last week and wanted to see how they would look as animated GIFs. So here you go! Give them a few seconds to load, they are much larger than a typical JPEG file. Conclusion: just because Photoshop lets one create animated GIFs does not mean one should. Cheers, and thanks for looking!
