Pelicans at Sloan Lake
Photographed some pelicans at Sloan Lake tonight. Got some nice light before the sun set.

wow, two great bird photos in one week. Great capture. The lighting is spot on.

Very nice!

I find it hard to accept pelicans are "native" to Colorado. I know this is part of their migration path, but it just seems wrong when you observe "sea birds" so far inland! Now, I'm off to look for penguins in Florida. :biggrin:

Dan, What beautiful light! The pose of the pelican really shows off those black tipped wings. Well done!

Nice capture, really nice light on the pelican.

I think I'd be very tempted to clone out his friend.
