When you look around in Antartica it’s hard to grasp the immensity, then every so often you get a little reminder to put the grander in to scale. With naked eye this looked like a tiny rock but through the lens I could see it was a gentoo penguin slowly making its way to the crest of the ice.
This photo helps me keep things in perspective and reminds me what’s important. The struggle these penguins go through to stay alive through constant danger and cold inspires me to make good choices wherever I am. Antarctica is a delicate ecosystem, and one degree of temperature change here makes all difference. It’s hard to imagine our daily decisions make a difference but regardless of the size, they are either having a positive effect or a negative one. Ride your bike or drive your car? It all adds up. Make the right choice and give these incredible animals a fighting chance they deserve.
I hope this photo is able to give you a sense or awe and wonder of this amazing world we live in and share with so much incredible wildlife.
