I was fortunate to go on a trip to Antarctica earler this year - wow, what a place! On the return journey, I spent a day on the Falklands and took a tour out to the King Penguin colony at Volunteer Point. We only had a couple of hours there but I managed to take hundreds of penguin photos! This one was published in Photography Monthly in July and then again in World of Photography a few weeks ago. A700 + 70-300 G.

A great picture Bluebear, I like the reflections. Congratulations on getting it published as well .

It must have been a very interesting trip. I bet you took a stack of pictures. I'd be very interested to hear more about it and see some more pictures. How was it shooting I'm the extreme cold?

Congratulations, Bluebear! : )

It's obvious why the photo was selected by publishers; that's one friendly gathering of the Imperial Penguins in good daylight while the grey-blue colour palette works wonders on the viewer's eyesight. There's something peaceful about their togetherness while a good message about the environmental aspect of life and survival.

Thanks for sharing and letting us know!

Looking forward to more and not necessarily the published ones.

An excellent shot indeed.

I like the composition very much. Almost like National Geographic like....

With best regards,

I agree, it's a great shot.
