Wonderful title Laura for a very dapper fellow indeed. Well done. #1401297Laura Greene August 15, 2011
Thank you, Dale! #9606510Irene Colling August 17, 2011
I marvel at the detail of each feather in this photo. I doubt that I have ever seen a penguin this close. Your shallow depth of field perfectly frames the subject for best display.Excellent work Laura. #9610007
