In Flight Over the Waters of the Pacific Ocean at Tolowa Dunes State Park

            A setting looking to the west while taking in views of a pod of California brown pelicans in flight at Tolowa Dunes State Park. My thinking in composing this image was to zoom in with the focal length to include only this one portion of the birds. The rest was the matter of attempting to line up the ocean and overcast skies to kind of sort of blend in as a backdrop and minimize that while focusing on the birds.
