[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This picture was taken at the Black-Browed Albatross colony on New Island, one of the outer islands of the Falklands (I could not find a listing under Antarctica). The colony is about 30mins walk uphill from the landing site.

The shot was taken just after sunrise. Rather than take the shot against the sea, I walked round the colony and took the shot inland, using the slope behind, which the sun had not reached, as a backdrop.

Hi James,
A great pose with a nice contrast of light & dark. Details are well-seen and POV is OK.
