Oceans

I love oceans - which is partly why I live on an island.  This is a picture I've been wanting to make for a while.  Months ago I saw a pelican circling just off shore and thought it would make a nice story - a girl and her pelican companion having adventures.  Where will they go?

I agree with everyone. The framing is what makes this special. Great feel to it. Congratulations.

You know, I had to look at this for a while before I got it. The fish behind the back weren't real clear but when I saw that and the pelican's expectant look, it clicked....really nice.
