The gentoo penguin leaping out of a wave onto shore is a prime example of how concentrating on one task at a time can prove beneficial.

1DX, 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4X @ 436mm, 1/2000 @ f/8, ISO 800. Spot metered on nearby penguin chest + 2 stops. Postproduction LR5, CS6, Intensify Pro. 


See you in the field or at the computer,
