#GoldHarbour

[citizenjayuncensored]

Going through my old Antarctica pics. Gods what a magical world. One of the last environments we haven’t completely destroyed or stained in some way. A place where the animals DON’T have an automatic fear of humans. If only they knew. Where a wild adolescent elephant seal will just randomly scootch up next to you, say hi, meet your travel stuffy and maybe pose for a picture or have a chat. We don’t deserve them. If there is only one trip you ever travel to in your life, make it Antarctica & South Georgia. #antarctica #southgeorgiaisland #goldharboursouthgeorgia #goldharbour #elephantseal https://www.instagram.com/p/CRrlUg9sKuG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sun was just setting at Gold Harbour. The sun was slowly fading behind the mountains, casting a beautiful golden glow over Bertrab Glacier and the colony of King Penguins, which numbers about 50,000. This was on the small side, compared to other beaches like St. Andrews Bay and Salisbury plain, with 300,000 and 250,000 respectively. And while looking back at a 1.5 hour time lapse I also shot from this position, that giant male elephant seal barely moved from his position the whole time. The chaos and noise of the colony behind him and he never waked. While the other locations have more numbers of Kings, with Gold Harbour’s cliff faces and glaciers so close to us on the beach, it made for an intimate setting like no other.

These babies stand very still to conserve their energy and they are hilarious to watch. Whilst the adults come and go, the babies just stand like this.
