Galápagos Sea Lions, Fernandina Island, Galápagos Islands, EcuadorGalápagos sea lions are virtually everywhere in the Galápagos archipelago. In some places, you have to be careful not to trip over them. Their ubiquity, as well as their playful and welcoming nature have earned them the title of “welcoming party” for the islands. In this instance, I was able to capture a tender moment between a mother and her pup. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 400, f/6.3 at 1/640th of a second.
