Seal Pup at Donna Nook, UK.
November is a great time for watching the seals giving birth to the pups, or even mating (as some couples seemed to carry on in front of many visitors).

I normally do not do "cute " pictures, but to heck with it...he really is CUTE....lovely image, and great details to the eye etc....nice!!

Soft exposure, wonderful capture of the eye, and the soft texture to the fur. This is a wonderful photo that could easily fit on a calendar or in a magazine. Striking image with awesome details and feeling.

Hi John,
Good detail, nice composition. Very nice photo!

Hello John

Like most mammal babies this pup is way past cute. Absolutely lovable, immensely cuddly, and totally adorable. It must be wonderful to be so near to these animals watching nature go its way. Remarkable photo.
