I watched these gulls dive repeatly in the shallow riverbed for dead salmon. They would haul the dead salmon up to the surface to eat.

Pelican diving on fish at low tide in the harbor at Moss Landing. I was driving along when I saw lots of pelicans diving, so I whipped my Jeep off the road and started shooting.

A new attempt to process an old shot from a 2014 trip to Yosemite. Admittedly, this is a composite. Unfortunately, the sky was cloud free and very unappealing as taken. While I am not typically a fan of replacing skies, this shot certainly benefits from the addition. While replacing a sky is not too difficult in and of itself, doing it correctly is much tougher as there is quite a bit of refinement to the mask to ensure that there are no visible artifacts or ghosting that would detract from the shot and scream out that its a composite. It is also very important not to use just any old replacement sky. Instead, the replacement sky must match the color and tonality of the original or the picture just won't look natural. I think this one works pretty well.
Whether your a fan of composites or not, this exercise allowed me to practice some new blending and masking techniques that will be able to put into use when blending bracketed exposures (and hopefully improve upon past efforts). I hope you like the shot(s) and as always, thanks for visiting.

Street photography in Lyon, France. I liked how the lady stood on the escalator, ready to spring into the deep pool of city life...
Diving from the canopy in beautiful Chakryn. This pic is best viewed large <3
If you love Chakryn as much as I do, you should head over and say goodbye.
Unless there's a miracle ~ or a big jump in donations ~ the forest will be gone in a few days....
Most ducks give you no warning when they are about to dive. You try to capture the moment and you end up with a splash and a duck butt. The Red Breasted Merganser is different. They give you a sign when they arch their back then rise up and dive. Its only a few seconds but its enough. This was captured on the second try.

A fun shot from the archives today. This Black-headed Gull was one of 50 or so that were diving into a small flood plain. The water was no more than about 12-18 inches deep so it is amazing that they did not harm themselves on the bottom lol.

SUNRISE ~ South Florida ~ Florida Keys
Smathers Beach ~ Key West, FL U.S.A.
[Dozens of pelicans were playfully frolicking in-flight at sunrise,
dive-fishing for their breakfasts off-shore about a half-mile out.
The conditions were just right for the 'flocks of pelicans' to feast
on the abundant sunrise bait-fish congregating near the surface.]

Autrefois utilisé en Angleterre pour la formation des cadets de la marine, le Dive Star sert aujourd’hui à faire des petites croisières en mer avec plongée sous marine.
Diving with Euro Divers in Kandooma resort in the Maldives (I know… life is tough!). Last dive of the trip and we went to the Canyon. Reef sharks like to rest on the sand and I was able to slowly move up closer to it from the side. Came out well for a 5 year old camera/housing. My new RX100iii couldn’t be used as the housing took 6 WEEKS to arrive ie. it arrived after I left. Not happy :-(
Should be able to practice in Sydney now before a trip in April to Ningaloo in Western Australia.
