Antarctic Fur Seal Pup

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... a last one from the species
The youngsters do look so nice with their fur and coloration apart from their innocent look , at least to me .

Hey Andreas,

The detail on the fur is amazing! Crisp but soft to the touch!

And such a loveable subject! Is it snow or waves in the background?

Thanks for sharing,

Gerald

I agree entirely with Gerald, wonderful rendition on the seal - right dowm to and including the flippers. The background ocean looks very pleasing conveying what must have been a very memorable moment.

@ Gerald .... as Jon said it is the ocean in the BG and waves .

@ Jon ... indeed one of the many memorable moments on that trip

Cheers Andreas
