Anything you can do, I can do better!
My name is Larry and I’m a California sea lion. I hang out here at Pier 39 in San Francisco Bay every single day with the guys. You know, before we all head down the coast and meet up with the gals. The guys are complete slobs so I decided that they really needed makeovers and where better to start than with posture? You know, I’ve demonstrating good posture to the guys for ages now and nobody took any notice until this new young guy came along. At first, I was flattered – after all I always thought of myself as a mentor – but he’s gettin’ too good now. How much longer can I keep doin’ this??
(Yes, these really are California sea lions at Pier 39 in San Francisco and I’m betting his name really is Larry!)

Thanks very much John. The story just came to me when I looked at the image. If you mean “how close was I to them?”, well, I was on the pier hanging over the railing and I had the lens zoomed out to about 120mm (roughly). There are a number of pontoons moored about 50-100 feet off the pier and the sea lions were lolling on them.
