Dolphins, Pelicans, and Seals

Been a while since I've been here, been traveling and then just moved into a new house (that needs a bit of work!) once I got back. Still don't have internet at home yet, but here's a couple of the first ones I've managed to get edited.

Very nice. You've got Brown Pelicans and White Pelicans. I really like the background on the flight shot.

I really like the flow and gentle mood to your seal shot.
It appears you have their undivided attention that's for sure!

Very nice. I particularly like the 2nd. I would like to do a trip like this myself.

Thanks!

And it is a pretty simple trip for us British Columbians. You can be in Mexico in 3 days of driving, or there is plenty of opportunity to break the trip up along the way. And it's pretty nice to be in sandals and swimming in the ocean in January and February!!

Nice shots Steve. How did you like the smell at the Salton Sea?

Nice shots. I like the Pelicans in flight the best. If it was mine, I would be hanging it on my wall - wait you have a new house, what better way to start than have one of your images adorn the walls.

Beautiful place, and more birds than I've really seen anywhere. But not the best smelling place, especially when you got down around the southern end of it where all the feedlots are.

I am pretty excited to print out some photos and hang them up on the wall, finally. It makes me want to finish the basement to get some more wall space!
