Description

...there are seven species of pelicans in the world, we have two of them in florida...these are brown pelicans, catching the seabreeze in the summer patterns, the breezes hit the dunes...and they are like gliders...riding the wind...shot against an intense morning gold sunlight...

Robert

Love these birds in flight and the background makes them pop big time.

Very nicely done.

Donna Roberts June 10, 2005

You are a true master of silhouettes - no matter what the subject is, you have the uncanny ability of knowing how to capture it perfectly against a great background.
Wonderful placement of these huge birds (I still can't believe that pelicans can fly!).
Very well done Robert.
