Hey hey... wait i am coming too. Lets walk hand in hand darling. LOL!!!!
Thanks everyone for wonderful comments on my last pic, i really appreciate that. I have been missing for last two days as i was tied up with work. I should be all back again tonight. Will catch up with you all then. :-)
Ok this was kinda fast processed image, as i seem to running short of time now a days. Still keeping my hands on the Photoshop as i am really falling in love with it.
For example this pic, the water is Black and White while the rest of it is in its original color, including the reflections.
Photoshop really rocks. Enjoy!!!!

Photoshop is the software that changed our world. The vision, what we see on streets and media, just everything. It's a legend, because only legends can be so important and beyond belief in life.
By the way, these birds you publish really rock. Specially with those stories behind them.
PS. I was a little busy these days. But now I'm back again to check all the nice photos. Thanks for your comments while I wasn't here much.

@Olaide: Thanks bro. :)
@Erik: Probably, thats why the one at the back is chasing the front one. And it would be a simple guess that the one at the back is a male. LOL!!! Thanks Erik. ;-)

Julio Pulido from Barcelona - Sant Boi, Spain
Una serie realmente buena. Me gusta como destacan los pelicanos sobre el fondo oscuro y el reflejo te quedo sensacional.

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada
This is just as beautiful as the other two!! The reflections are divine as is the colouring and exposure. But now you need to get outside and take some new ones!!!!!! Macro, baby, macro!! I'm waiting!!!
26 Jul 2007 9:48pm
@amy: Thanks babe ;-) You sure know my weakness and you wont leave any chance to push me off the cliff on that one. LOL!!!! Hmmmm... i get your signal, this series should end soon and time for the new one. ;-)
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
Nice details in the pelicans faces. Gives us a different feel to the last two shots, which were more artistic interpretations. This one is great too, but for different reasons, so well done
26 Jul 2007 9:57pm
@Richard_Irwin: Thanks Richard, I decided to keep it original, except for little PS touch here. The pelicans were natural beauty so i didnt have to do much.
@Jose: Thanks Jose.
@Craiger: Thanks Bro.
Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia
Well, yuo're becoming a master of Photoshop. I wouldn't have even thought about the background being black and white, because again -- as I've just stated in a comment on another example of your postprocessing skills -- this integrates so well, that it looks totally natural. And as for the subjects, you've caught them so beautifully. The composition and cropping is just right, too.

@Andrew Gould: Thanks Andrew, the background is more evident when its printed. Thats where the true effects show up. :) I am not a photoshop master, just learning and all the effects i choose is just based on the feel. Its more like how i would like to see it and think it would look beautiful. :)
