I took the opportunity this morning to head out to the coast and get some shots of the grey seals who have pupped on the beach at Horsey Gap. Infinitely easier to take photos of animals who lay pretty still whilst on the beach than birds who are shy - no ghilli suits or camouflage required.

I love how you filled the frame with this chubby little baby seal. He looks exhausted = like he might have just had his first swimming lesson!!! Might want to bump up the vibrant slider on Photoshop a bit. You definitely captured all of the details perfectly. I LOVE THIS!!!

I do like the sense of texturing that comes through in the image... were but the presence of the mother one would be so tempted to feel the softness of the baby seal's coat. Are the eyes as black as they appear in your photograph?

Nice capture of this seal pup. Wonder what it was doing - playing in the sand for fun?
