Pelicans have to be one of my favourite birds. They are always active and are so photogenic. But, in this setting, the foggy landscape was the star of the show. So when these two pelicans waddled into the frame, I underexposed the image to make a silhouette of these birds. The think fog in the golden light makes for a surreal setting.

This photograph is from my "Magic Hour" series. Magic hour is the period of time between sunset and daybreak when warm hues of gold, pink, and blue are visible. The collection features photographs taken during the "golden hour" in Keoladeo Ghana National Park in Bharatpur, Rajasthan, a wetland wonder and one of the largest bird sanctuaries. As a result, the collection is also an ode to Bharatpur, a place I've visited every year for the past ten years.
