To Rise Above the Crowd

Cape Fur Seal colony at Cape Cross, Namibia. The number of seals was low compared to breading season, there were still plenty to fill the air with their distinctive aroma.

It might be on top but it looks jolly uncomfortable

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Seals have a way of looking cute in photographs. When in numbers like this the aroma is almost overpowering, good job photographs don't record the smell as well.
