    Default Straight Down the Barrel: Brown Pelican

    Photographed at Ft. DeSoto, FL. This particular bird was enjoying the morning light and preening like nobody's business. As if he suddenly realized I wasn't part of the natural environment he gave me this stare. It took him a fraction of a second to understand I meant him no harm and he went back to preening.

    Cheers

    David:

    Very strong image graphically, like the base provided by the trunk and partial wings. Sharp, well exposed. The multi toned background works well for me, but I would cover up the small patches of blue at the very top.

    Signature is OK, but the graphic is very distracting.

    Cheers

    Randy
