 Have only just purchased Photoshop Elements 5 and need to learn how to use it. Have not altered the photo much - cropped and removed a couple of small imperfections from the sky (tiny water spots which must have been on the uv filter)- converted to JPG (hopefully all this will become easier once I understand how to use this program). Your thoughts as to what requires attention in this photo to enhance it would be appreciated. Thanks

Love the perspective that you have taken this from, the pelicans stand out perfectly against the beautiful blue sky, very nicely captured.

I'll watch your back if you watch mine. I like the alternating direction of the heads. Very nice catch.

Interesting "forward/backward" thing they've got going with their heads. Eyes on everything :) Could use a rotation to the left, just a bit. This would also look nice from the angle of directly down the rail, and a bit above the pelicans, looking down on them somewhat. 6
