Gorgeous shot in an exotic location. Both the model and the scenery look exquisite, it seems difficult to take a bad shot in such conditions. I know nevertheless how difficult is to expose snow properly, and the texture appears here just right.

Stunning shot, simply a stunning shot and one of which you should be immensely proud! The details are clear and sharp..the icy white/blue sky combo is beautiful and the pose of the seal is a real delight to see. Very good shot indeed, well done!

You are fotunate to have seen this beautiful place of our planet. I imagine everything being white and cold yearround. The exposure in this image is very good. In my screen the snow appear white and the seal is well in focus. The seal is deffinitely a cute model. Nice work Karin.

Hello Karin!

Something very interesting and unusual . I particularly like the look of this little fellow. The decor with these light conditions, looks like a studio scene. The elements in the FG the slightly blurred BG.
A beautiful post.
Bravo Karin!

Hi Karin
WOW! This is a stunning TL posting. WELL DONE! Beautiful capture. The DOF, lighting and POV is excellent. Looks like it was a pristine day. He looks adorable, I'm sure he didn't mind having his photo taken. :-)

Hi Karin
I really have to wonder how pleasant sunbathing would be in that environment, but I guess if you're a seal - it would be just fine. Fantastic capture, beautiful metering in tough conditions.

Hi Karin,

What an excellent shot.
Scenery is great - pose is great - white and blue as background colours. AND the snow looks really like snow, which is not always easy to capture.
Fantastic.

Hello Karin - This photo is a classique. What a beautiful day in Antarctica. The cuddly-looking seal made wonderful 'eye contact'. I also like the backdrop of that magnificent mountain and the blue-ish shades in this sublime landscape. The white balance is good. Thank you so much for sharing this - and your other exceptional photos from the Antarctic Pensinsula - with us! Cordelia :)))

Hello Karin,

Exceptional shot which brought a smile to my face! POV is very good. I like that the seal is in perfect focus with the mountain being slightly out-of-focus ... this makes the seal "Pop" from the photo amd makes it more realistic. It is a very calming photograph.

Excellent job!

Regards,
David...
