I got up early for this image of king penguins marching along the shoreline at Volunteer Point in the Falkland Islands. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 800, f/2.8 at 1/2500th of a second.
That’s a wonderful image, Sean. The composition is awesome & the “bunched up” king penguins ‘neath the “bunched” up.sunlight in the sky couldn’t be better posed. .
Thanks Sue. The nice thing about penguins is that they are always there. You don’t have to go find them so if the light is good, you can concentrate on the image and not the search.

For sure, choreographed to the coming and going of the surf.

Just like my meemaw always said, “the early bird gets the bird.” And then she’d cackle and give me the middle finger.
