Pelican Diving Composite (yesterday was Pelican taking off)
Mar 29, 2019 09:57:45 #
Same local: Sanibel Is, FL. Same settings: 400 ISO, 1/1250 second.
While composing this, I noticed that the wing tip feathers are slightly blurry, so a decrease in shutter speed, maybe 1/2000 or so, would be better.
FYI, the main body of the composition is the 3rd from the bottom. All other BIFs were added. And yes, I'm retired, so that I could spend about two hours on this one.
For those of you who are wondering, the technique requires PS knowledge of layers, copying and pasting, and just a modicum pf patience...or maybe a bit more.

Cool Picture.
I'd say that "maybe a bit more" patience paid off. Lovely image.
Thanks

Really nice composition and compilation. Not sure what the two smaller birds, one on each side, bring to the table - I might have been inclined to remove them to focus solely on the "dive." IMHO, of course!
