ON THE SHIMMERING RIVER
Snow still blanketed the riverbanks as American White Pelicans parted the sparkling sunlight on the river surface. These pelicans are a striking white color, and are known for trapping trout in an enormous pouch. For this photograph I lay down on the ground just above the level of the river surface so I could be eye level with this big bird. I incorporated the sun sparkles around the pelican into the composition because I loved the sense of the creature swimming through shimmering light.
