Captured some pelicans at Sloan's Lake the other night. The nice light made for some great oppurtunities. Thanks for looking.

In #1, I like the evening color and the water pushing up against its front. The shadow (from an adjacent pelican?) on its bill and neck is bothersome to me.

Love the light in these shots Dan. Looks like they were hanging pretty close to shore.

Nice warm light, Dan--pretty shots!

Not much more I can add. The light helps make these unique to your pelican portfolio.
Once again, I appreciate seeing work like this here of wildlife that I never get a chance to see otherwise.
