King Penguin Blur, Volunteer Point, Falkland IslandsA nice thing about having willing subjects and plenty of time is that you get to play and experiment with different shutter speed/aperture combinations. Thus was the case in the Falklands. After getting all the sharp portraits of king penguins that I needed, I tried some motion blurred effects. For this one I had my camera on a tripod and dialed in a very low shutter speed. The king penguins are so graphic with their white, black and especially, those bright yellow feathers that I was able to get some interesting results.
