BEHIND THE SCENE

In my photographic career specializing in Polar Regions, I've landed on Half Moon Island in the South Shetlands of the Antarctic Peninsula dozens of times. Quite often, we can find Weddell seals resting on the pebble beaches around the island. Seals usually come to land to rest and digest after spending time in the water fishing. In order to capture any kind of behaviour, you have to be very patient and simply sit, wait and be ready when the action starts, as it might last just a few seconds - just the time it takes for a quick yawn.
