This Pelican seemed to like having company. He didn't leave until the sun was totally gone. Got some more shots of him, but the sky was the big show tonight.
30D; RAW, 17-40mm "L" @ f/4.0
John, this sunset needs no helper. I opened this photograph and cropped out the bottom and distant building on the right and then used the patch tool to clone out the undistinquishable bird, just to see how it would look. I like it better without the distractions. You're right, that sky is breathtaking. Great shot. anne :-)
There are tons of websites for uploading snapshots - photos of your neice, back yard, etc. "Caedes Man" did not start this website for that purpose. His intent was to offer a venue for folks to share artistic images that could be used as desktop backgrounds. Does anyone really want an out of focus shot of a dog for a desktop background? probably not. Let's share the good stuff and help others by telling them what's good or how to improve an image. We could all make Caedes a great site for everyone and use those other places for the snapshot sharing. A first rate family snap sharing website is www.easysite.com. FREE website to share all your snaps plus a whole lot more. Thanks for giving honest and usable feedback. Blessings to all, anne :-)
