When the sun goes behind the mountains at the Salton Sea, there is this magic light that lasts for just a little while. My wife and I love to watch the white pelicans come in to roost for the evening. They glide along the water, going up and down like a roller coaster. We call them pelican trains. :cool: Hope you like this one, made with Topaz Clean and Adjust.

OOOH! I love it! The colors are gorgeous and I like the way you simplified the details! It looks like a painting. I'd hang it on the wall!

Great use of Topaz Clean. I love the flow of colors and the sting of pelicans in perfect line with the horizon. I agree with Judy, this would be beautiful on the wall!

Beautiful, Kerry! Love the composition and the colors are just Wow! I like how the soft, watercolor look you achieved. Only thing that I wish is that more of the birds had their wings up or down rather than flat. Well done!

This is outstanding, Kerry. I love birdscapes and this one with the low flying pelicans with the backdrop of setting sun is fantastic. Great colors and light... nice use of filters. TFS.
