    King penguins are amazingly beautiful birds.

    Having been to the Falklands a number of times now I can concentrate my efforts on images different than those taken on previous trips. And, with dates already secured for next year I look forward to returning once again to this magical place.

    See you where there is light, or at the computer

    Best,

    Chas, Excellent exposure on all the colours, especially the blacks. I like the lazy pose, and just wish for more room top and left.

    Super image - great detail and exposure here. Like the composition. Well thought out!
    Composition as is works for me. Well done. I hope one day to be able to photograph these Penguins.

    Great job exposing here, and I love the pose, the BG, the texture, the curves, the colors. I do feel, however, that the capture could benefit from a tad more space top and left.
