It is always nice watching these big pelicans. There is a slight tilt. A slight clockwise rotation would be fine. When the Sun is a bit higher in the sky, it becomes difficult to get their eyes well lit. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Yeah...I did notice the tilt. I decided to try keeping it put and see how the effect would be...may be giving an impression that the birds are swimming down-current! Thank you for the comment:)

The symmetry is nice. Good eye contact. Thanks for sharing.
