I decided to do one more Pelican. I had taken this photo quite a while ago--a Brown Pelican in breeding plumage. The thing that interested me this time was the contrast between very bright and very dark. The fiery orange of the feathers on the back of his neck jump out against the blackness of the background. The Pelican transitions from sharp detail to almost disappearing into that dark space. This is a small piece--only 12" x 9" unframed.
