Kimarie Chartier here- 43. I live in Canyon Country /Newhall area , Southern California. I have always been an artist . I started drawing at age two. My Mother said when I was a child I always had something to draw with in hand and I would cry when the paper ran out (LOL) ..I went to art school for a short while and have taught art to elementry school kids. I have done many oil paintings , pastels and watercolors , but recently , have been intrigued with digital photography and computer photo art in paint shop pro. now, I mainly work in Paint shop pro 7 and 11. I now also just beginning to work in ADobe photoshop cs2 ! I also am a full time Mom with three girls ( who are all over my gallery) Annie 16, Janel 13, and Christina 10. Between my parenting, photoshoots, Renderosity and playing in paint shop/ photoshop I keep very busy ! I also have a sweet, loving cocker spaniel named Candi who is very needy of much love and attention lol She goes with me on photoshoots-oh- 'cept when I am shooting birds haha cause she is a bird hunter by nature!!
 I LOVE any kind of art .like to draw and paint with basically anything I can get my hands on (LOL)!
I have fallen in love with photography
opening up light and dark and seeing the limitless possiblities! But I do still love to paint too!!  Works like Nightfears , came from nothing but my immagination -drawing/ painting with only a mouse paint and smudge tools from a blank page in paintshop 7. I started out with a Nikon 7900 pocket cam and am at the moment working in photography..now also have two other canon pocket cams a sl900
and sx 100is - mainly all my work in my gallery is done with my little pocket cams - they go with me everywhere and is an an extention of my right hand!! I have a canon rebel as well but it isnt working all that great so manly using the pocket cams for now . Learning..growing and sharing on here is the best!! I don't know what I would do without this site it has helped me learn so much..( this site motivates me so much ) I love it here ! yeah so I got the photography bug ..and I also love to do photo art...!! I, every now and then I will do a painting or a smudging as I call it.( you can see most of my smudge painting works hand done with a mouse on the first two pages of my gallery!!)

"A wonderful bird is the pelican - it's beak can hold more than it's belly can" (Old, funny saying my dear, late father told me as a kid). Excellent!!

Ahhhh! The pelican, the pelican, his beek can hold more than his belly can, ETC. ETC. ETC. Super photo. Love the composition. HUGS!!!

sorry about your dental dilemma. your capture of these guys are excellent. The pelicans at Key West are not afraid of people at all. they actually try hard to get food. you better have some food, because no one likes a mad pelican!!
Sapphyre_net
I have a dental dilemma myself going. :o( Not quite as bad as yours, though. Excellent capture. I know what you mean how the birds come and go. You wish they could stay a while. Excellent image. :o)

Oh these three look like they are really enjoying your attention. A whimsical shot Kimarie. My dentist recommends Ibuprofen for tooth pain. It worked fairly well for me. Get well soon!

Manny, Moe, and Jack???? LOL ;p I can tell you where they go..... they come up here and hang at a lot of the lakes for awhile and then keep going north!!!! Cute shot, Kimmers! Take care!
romanceworks
What a fantastic shot! Birds are so fun to observe ... I put seven bird feeders on our upper deck and they attract blue jays,and woodpeckers, ravens, and all kinds of wonderful birds ... we're now waiting for the hummers to return. So sorry to hear about your painful tooth. I, too, wait until the inevitible before going to the dentist. :o) CC

Fantastic image of these white pelicans!! These guys are sooooo beautiful. Collecting there feathers is one of my favorite things to do there. I love to paint on them.

Fantastic capture Kimmers! They look so wise! Bravo!

So sorry to hear about your pain. Never easy dealing with a bad tooth....i should know. When you eat as much candy as me, youre bound to have lots of cavities, LOL. Nah...but when i scuba-dive, the air-pressure then used to make old fillings explode. So i always end up having to fix the same ones....expensiiiiiive. Oooops...raaambling, LOL. Better get back to the photo...bla bla. And what a cool looking shot it is. 3 guys, looking meaner than hell. Looks kinda like the pelican-mob or something....i do believe you can pitch these for the guys over at Pixar. #;o) Have a wonderful sunday...even though you hurt.
hewee
Excellent shot you got there. Sorry to hear your in pain Kimmer and wish you the best on getting that tooth fixed.

Kimmers...I would love to see pelicans one day. Lucky you for finding them all sitting in a row. Fantastic composition. Even with the others swimmming around, it adds to the whole shot. Looks like a beautiful park. Have a good Sunday!! d

Pelicans are great birds to photograph. Unfortunately there are none where I live. Oh, well, I'll stick to ducks and swans then! Wonderful capture!
