King Haakon Bay is where Shackleton made landfall after his crossing from Elephant Island. It's a remote, windswept place on the south coast of South Georgia, and it feels every bit as far from civilisation as it actually is.
These two King penguins were completely indifferent to my presence. One stands upright, facing the mountains, while the other has gone flat on the gravel in what I can only describe as total commitment to doing nothing. The overcast light works well here, keeping the tones even across the tussock grass and snow-capped peaks beyond the lagoon. No harsh shadows, just that cool, diffused quality you get on grey days in the sub-Antarctic.
There's real quiet in this photograph. Two birds, a gravel shore, and a landscape that hasn't changed in centuries.
