DESCRIPTION
Macaroni penguin, South Georgia Island, November 2023. This was more difficult than anything I had ever photographed before. Landings were few due to growing avian influenza amongst the penguins, seals and skuas. That also meant we were not allowed to get down on the ground whenever we did land. This one was from a bobbing zodiac. The experience was fascinating, trying to stay within the zodiac when it went up and down several feet, keep the camera dry, and the focus pointed to the penguins when they moved in and out of the frame at several feet per second, all at the same time. Crazy. Very crazy.
AUTHOR
An amateur wildlife photographer, my interest is primarily in big cats. Self-taught, there are more memories of natural history than there are images from my cameras. I am just blessed to have witnessed those moments.
