This is a simple black and white wildlife photo of two Humpback Whales swimming side-by-side with just the top of their backs and small dorsal fins visible above the water and a small iceberg in the background. Southern Ocean (2024).

Dominating most of the photo is a smooth expanse of sea water with just the smallest ripples disturbing the surface. Below and to the left of centre are our two Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) viewed from slightly above and at a distance of five metres. The whales are swimming along the surface, their wakes causing only the smallest disturbance in the water behind them. All that is visible is the long ridge of their black backs, perhaps five or more metres in length and the small dorsal fin to the rear of the back. The whales are swimming slowly side-by-side, only a few metres apart with the closest being very slightly ahead of the farther whale. In the upper left corner is a small, bright white, iceberg about ten metres long and a few metres visible above the water.

        This is a colour wildlife photo in landscape format of a Gentoo Penguin, racing away with a small rock in its beak, having just stolen it from another penguin's nest (they use small rocks, stones or pebbles as a nesting material). Booth Island, Antarctica (2024).

In the foreground is a large, smooth and sloping rock, stained a medium red or brown, that rises up from the lower left corner, extends over to the right margin and rises upwards to a little less than the quarter up level. In the centre of the photo is our thieving Gentoo Penguin hurrying from left to right. The penguin is viewed obliquely with right side and back in view, filling most the height of the photo and view from a few metres away and at the same level as the bird. In fact the photo was taken from five or more metres away, but with a long lens so the photo appears to be shot much closer. In the bird's beak is a small dark and sharp rock, probably no more than a few cm across. The sides of the bird's beak are bright orange with the top and bottom being black. The bird's back is black, while the front is white including a white stripe that extends from one eye, over the top of the head and then down to the other eye. The two wing or flippers are extended outwards for balance. At the base of the back is an fan shaped arrangement of short, dark tail feathers that extend at right angles (parallel to the ground). Below are two large bright orange feet. In the background, a few metres away, is a further large and smooth rock that slopes gently from the upper right corner down towards the lower left corner. Between the front and rear rocks is a small gully with one adult Gentoo and two chicks, all facing to the left and viewed in profile. On the edge of the far rock is a line of snow and ice. The distant background is all a medium grey, devoid of any detail.

          Red Squirrel

          With snow falling at home, I headed to the red squirrel woodland hide, where more had already settled.

          This male helped me create some new Christmas card images!

          Magical.

          Email me if you'd like to book a day at this woodland.

          A photo of a red squirrel sitting on a bracket fungus on the side of a silver birch tree, with snow falling all around. In a woodland in the Scottish Highlands.
