The Good Life

These bull seals seem to know when they’re on to a good thing. A whole heap of them were dozing on the dockside at the fishing harbour in Arica, northern Chile. They seem to spend half their time sleeping and the other half harassing the fishermen for a share of their catch! I was warned not to get too close to these guys as not only are they huge (up to 9 feet long) and heavy, but they are mighty belligerent….... ;o))) And they look so cute! Bless!!! ;o)))

    Wonderful capture Krys, what lens did you use for this???

  • Krys Bailey replied

    Oops, I think I had a funny five minutes yesterday Michael! The lens I used for this is my Canon 70-300 DO IS USM! I have now replaced that lens with the Canon 70-200 L IS f/4 as I also have the 400mm, so if you know anyone who wants to buy a lens, let me know! ;o)

    Personality bursting from the seams! Somehow they remind me of Onslow snoozing in his overstuffed recliner on the British sitcom Keeping up Appearances. What a wonderful heartwarming photo! Makes me smile!

  • Krys Bailey replied

    Thanks Bonnie! I’m surprised you know Onslow over there – one of my favourite comedys! I think these guys might be a little less “docile” than Onslow if I woke them up, rofl! ;o))) Your calendar has been sent according to RB, btw.
