Very nice shot of these pelicans at rest. Sharp focus provides full details. Well controlled light and shadow. Good color throughout. Not a great fan of the black background, but it is effective in making the birds standout. Well done.

Hi Eileen!
That's a fine looking Portrait Photo of this pair of large and interesting Marine birds!
I notice they've both got the 'mating season bump' on the top of their large beaks!
A 'Good Show' of a picture indeed,my friend! : )

Comment from Donna Ruiz
I love these birds and I LOVE this shot, Eileen. Great job capturing both eyes in focus. The lighting is really lovely. One in shade, one with sun on its back. The tightly cropped composition is just so nice. Really nice job capturing the textures so well. The dark background really helps them to pop. REALLY lovely work. Thanks for sharing.

A gorgeous nature shot.....and you have captured such a realistic shot. Superb eye clarity on both white pelicans. Your dark background accentuates your photography beautifully. So beautiful how the lighting is falling on the pelican and your details captured are incredible. Outstanding work and a signature piece. Thanks for sharing. Love this one!

This is such a sweet photo of two Pelicans Eileen, and I like very much the all dark background. Especially like how well you have brought out the textures in the feathers, and how nicely the sunlight is falling on the bird up front.
Your photo is of course also sharp, and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in both birds. The white balance and exposure is perfect.
The format you have cropped the photo into works really well, and the two of them are well placed within the frame. A truly lovely and well taken photo and with a very good DOF.

Eileen,
A beautiful picture of this pair of White American Pelicans standing close to each other the knobs on the beaks indicating they maybe a breeding pair. Beautiful profile composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & razor sharp focus.

Just gorgeous! Two white pelicans side by side in different poses,very well photographed with perfect focus, the image is clear and well exposed allowing the details in faces, bills and feathers to be easily seen, good eye contact too!

Comment from Sange
Nice capture of this breeding couple huddled close.
The bumps on the bills tell me it's breeding time.
Both males and females get the bumps only during breeding.
Nice focus, white balance control and nice dark background.
Nice shot E
