Penguins, of course, can’t fly, but this gentoo was doing his/her best to make it happen. It was fun to watch them as they shot from beneath the surface of the water into the air and then back down again. But it was a challenge — in a whack a mole kind of way — to predict where the next one might pop up for a picture. Photographed on Sea lion Island in the Falkland Islands. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 250mm) ISO 800, f/6.3 at 1/2000th of a second.

If she believes that orange lipstick she has on looks good then yeah, she probably also believes she can fly.
A bit overdone, isn’t it?
So much hope and excitement in her eyes.
Super nice, Sean! Attempting to guess where the next action may occur is difficult in wildlife photography. You did well here, professor!
Ha. Thanks Sue.
