Species: Sea Lions | Location: San Cristobal, Galapagos Islands
Baby Sea Lions, San Cristobal, Galapagos Islands. There were probably 100+ sea lions on the beach with several newborns. I caught these two interacting and couldn't help projecting a human like interaction.
About The Photographer
I've always loved what photography enables me to do. As a teenager I enjoyed film photography. With work and family commitments I left the hobby fallow for too many years. A few years ago I discovered digital photography and the vast opportunities it presents. Always interested in wildlife and the natural world I only started seriously traveling recently. Last year my wife an I took a Natural Habitat trip to The Galapagos and were inspired. A couple of the images submitted are from that trip and one from my home on Barnegat Bay New Jersey. Nearing retirement I look forward to continue to capture beautiful moments.
