‘Sunbathing on Leopard Beach,’ a photograph of a gentoo penguin taken on Carcass Island in the Falkland Islands was printed in The Guardian newspaper in December 2016.

Most of the Gentoo Penguin colony had come straight from the sea and back to their rookery. I saw this individual, however, standing amongst the rocks on Leopard Beach soaking up the sun. I quietly approach and took the shot from a couple of feet away. Carcass Island.
