This gentoo penguin was heading back to shore after an afternoon of fishing. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 800, f/6.3 at 1/1600th of a second.
Do you get tickets for playing Photograph a Penguin? Like you get from Skee-ball? After you photograph three or four good penguins can you trade that in for some baseball cards? How many penguins do you have to photograph to get a skateboard?
