I especially like this one because it makes me think of Shackelton and his crew. They endured; we can too. #11801398

Wow, this is an amazing image, Daniel. I love this! A friend of mine was in the navy at the Antarrctic and took many images of the penguins...Congratulations on your finalist and POTD awards! and so agree with Jim! #11801399
