Pelicans

I posted a Brown Pelican image to my personal Facebook page a couple of days ago. I’m SLOWLY…and maybe not so surely…adding images to the gallery section of the Stephen Fisher Photography website. I had just added two Brown Pelican images and wanted to let the folks know…

One of my friends…Sherrill Lanthier…immediately replied to my posting with “Where are the WHITE pelicans?”. Well Sherrill…here you go. A couple of White Pelicans just for you!

I’ve been down in Rockport for the weekend. It has been raining off and on…mostly on…for a while. After the drought conditions we’ve had here in Texas, I’ve sworn NEVER to complain about the rain again. I’m sticking to my guns on that…but we’ve had LOTS of rain.

There was a reception last night at the Rockport Center for the Arts. Jim Bob Salazar was displaying some of his amazing pottery. I don’t know much about pottery, but his work is impressive. In spite of the weather, there was a very good turnout. (Maybe the wine and snacks help!)

I found a TINY window of opportunity to make a few images yesterday morning. I’ve had my eye on a long row of pilings setting out into Aransas Bay. The decking of the pier had long ago disappeared, and all that was left were the pilings. I made about 15 images in the fog and think I may have a keeper or two. We’ll see…
