Photographer’s Note
A shot of one of the locals catching a few rays late in the winter. This young lass is a very pregnant Weddell seal. They usually pup round about August. Not the most common seal in the Antarctic, but definately the most commonly seen seal. They can be found all year round, usually lounging around by their breather hole, which they keep open by using their teeth as a giant saw.

What a shot! I love this! How close did you get? Which lens did you use? I love the composition, the colours, and the smile. Have any more of these to post?

Has it just been to an hair dresser?
Really nice.
Was it crop or what?
Ciao
