Penguin Play

Antarctic Peninsula, Half Moon Bay

Chinstrap Penguins

Camera: Linhof

The story:  Penguins here, penguins there, penguins everywhere. I had already shot hundreds of frames of these little guys and I was feeling a little overwhelmed. It was time to focus on fine art abstract. What am I looking at? Funny, black and white shapes interacting with each other in an unmistakably joyous way. Yes, it makes me smile from the inside out. How do those strange combinations of black and white imply so much emotion? They awaken the playful kid inside all of us.
