    WOW! Where along the Pacific are those shots? They are absolutely awesome! Those are the kind of waves shots I'm always after. bowdown.gif I'll have to go back to your gallery when I have more time.

    Some amazing pictures in your gallery. The "wow-factor" on a scale from 1 to 5 is surely...6!

    Thanks for sharing.

    Nice shots, but just be aware of keeping the horizon level. Both of those shown here can be fixed with a decent photo editor.

    Thanks. i was standing on the shore. most of the shots were done with the sigma 50-500mm lens at 500mm so it can make things look a lot closer!

    i'm weird sorry. :)
    i actually use Adobe Photoshop CS3 beta these days. i've gotten the same critieque on Trek Earth about level horizons. I appreciate that perspective but to be honest i prefer the way these shots are. I like the effect in the first shot where the cormorants seem to be going uphill. In the pelican shot i wanted the leat pelican level. This is a matter of taste of course. Thanks for your suggestion.
