Getting the eye! (Volunteer Point - Falkland Islands)

Getting the eye! (Volunteer Point - Falkland Islands)
Picture taken March 1987

I don't know who was more surprised, me or the Magellanic Penguin chick emerging from his/her burrow. Focus not great, but is was manual!

Erhard Bernstein, Smiley Derleth, Roger (Grisly), Andy Rodker and 14 other people have particularly liked this photo
