DeSoto Sunset/Composite

The setting sun was created with the Canon 500mm, stacked 2X and 1.4X II TCs, and the MIII. The pelican silhouette was created with the Canon 500, the 1.4X II TC, and the MIII.

I selected the pelican with the Magic Wand, put it on its only layer, and then used Cntrl T/Scale to reduce the size. Then I dragged the layer to the sunset, darkened the water with a Quick Mask, and was good to go.

I am wondering if Corbis will grab this one..

Don't be shy; all comments welcome.

killer artie. I should try to take some similar sunset shots to keep around for similar type comps. never thought of a sunset with super tele.

Lovely, Maestro, the sun makes me think of a lava lamp :)

Now this is cool! Just the slightest hint of rotation on the water.

very cool!! i like it.
