Flight of Five
Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 29 December 2008 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.
I was surprised to see pelicans along the Columbia River.

Excellent capture Steve. We had them on the Mississippi River last year in Illinois. A really long way from salt water.

4+1, nice asymmetry, balanced nicely with the low and dark horizon, well frame. Won't have guess these were pelicans.
