TWO KING PENGUINS
I lay down on the beach of Saunders Island to get below eye level of these two king penguins. The expansive backdrop, although unobtrusive, suggests the remote habitat of these magnificent birds. Although taken close to midday with the sun high in the sky, a little sea mist has softened the harshness of the light.
