Mark, a beautiful sunset scene topped off by that elegant pair of flying pelicans...very effective as silhouettes . Really nice color and lighting here...well composed too. Nice photo. MFC

Bev, my 300d (Now have a 20D) date / time stamp is definately off! Surely, I did not own tha camera in 1980 ;-) When I sent it in for servicing at Canon, they must have reset everything. Didn't notice it until after about 50 shots! (this one of them)
Thanks for comments.

Beautiful - colors, crispness, setting. Nicely captured Mark.

Gorgeous and crisp -- absolutely lovely in its simplicity. Great capture. Perfect for the challenge.

This is a signature Markjay photo - and still as beautiful as the first time I saw it. Wonderful capture, Mark, they're perfectly silhouetted above the horizon. (does the date need to be corrected?) Bev
