A male Antarctic Fur Seal decided to sleep right next to the landing site at Grytviken, South Georgia so I had to stand guard in case he decided we were competitors on the beach. He wasn't interested! This guard duty allowed me to make some images of the detail of the sole of the foot/flipper or these amazing marine mammals.
I cropped to frame the detail, dodged and burned a little, and sharpened.
Hope everyone is having a nice break over the holiday.
