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..
