Thanks Joel....the background was pretty simple....it's snow. Although the color is a little off here.

Oh yeah...with snow you will almost always get a blue cast unless you manually adjust the WB up to around 7000-8000. You can fix it in post by de-saturating the blues or using the eye-dropper and white balance adjustment but it might require a drastic adjustment.

My new pair of Wellies came this week. Time to put them to use and tromp around looking for shots. Temps are due to stay above freezing for the near future, so maybe the eagles will be fishing again.

Here's a first of two sets of brown pelicans circling at Megan's Bay in St. Thomas USVI.
