Swede’s Photographs

Sitting in the Morning Sun

In the water off the beach at Gulfport, Mississippi, there are several timber piles, reaching up out of the water a hundred meters or so offshore. Birds use them to rest on, particularly the birds who dive for their food. This silhouetted bird appears to be a brown pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis).

My photo gallery contains more that 900 images that I've chosen to share. Most are there for their visual appeal but there are a few novelty images. You can check out my gallery at:

"The image shows a silhouette of a brown pelican perched on top of a tall timber pile that rises out of the ocean. The background features a gradient sky transitioning from light to darker shades, with the ocean visible below, reflecting light and creating a sparkling effect on the water's surface. The photograph captures the serene and solitary nature of the pelican against the tranquil seascape, highlighting the contrast between the dark silhouette and the bright background. The image is interesting due to its composition, the play of light and shadow, and the peaceful ambiance it conveys." - Copilot

Swede’s Photographs

Laughing Gull and Wave, Black and White

This is a laughing (Leucophaeus atricilla) that I saw in Gulfport, Mississippi. What really caught my eye is the little boiling wave to the right of the gull.

I don't post all of the photos that I post here to my Pixels gallery, but I post the photos I like best. Some don't make the cut. I usually wait a couple of days and see how I feel about it then.

You can check out my gallery at:

"The image is a black and white photograph featuring a laughing gull standing in the surf, with gentle waves in the background. The gull is positioned in the center of the frame, facing slightly to the right with its beak closed. Its plumage appears smooth and well-defined against the soft ripples of water surrounding it. The bird’s legs are partially submerged in water, indicating it is standing at the edge near where water meets land. There’s a contrast between the stillness of the gull and the dynamic movement of water, which adds an interesting element to the image." - Copilot with edits

The best part of our entire excursion was we did not meet even ONE rude person.

Nobody pushed, nobody snarked, & people actually smiled & held doors for us. Even the wildest unleashed children were all smiles & polite too.

Every customer, store clerk, waitress, or worker we encountered was reasonably pleasant & seemed happy.

I'm pretty sure they have drugged Gulfport's water supply, tbh.
