Image by @FransLanting. At sea. It's 4:30 am and we're cruising along the south coast of #SouthGeorgia. All the other passengers are sleeping. I'm thinking of the many times I've sailed this coast--first with the Poncet family on their yacht, Damien II, back in the 1980s, for an assignment for #NationalGeographic. Amazingly, when we landed in the #Falklands last week I met up with #SallyPoncet at #TonyChater 's rustic home in Stanley--we spent hours sharing stories. Then I went down to the harbor to find #DionPoncet, the Poncets' oldest son, on his own boat. Dion was born aboard Damien II, and the Poncets' three young boys were all aboard when I circumnavigated South Georgia with them many years ago--a serious adventure. Right now there's a big swell with whitecaps, lots of birds cantilevering through the strong wind, but the ship is stable. Yesterday we went ashore in Fortuna Bay--fresh snow on the mountains, temperature just below freezing, but blissfully, there was almost no wind. We headed for another #kingpenguin colony. I showed people how "low and slow" yields the best results. After a while a gaggle of king penguin chicks, aka "the oakum boys," waddled up to us. In flagrant violation of the rule that no one shall approach an animal closer than five meters they came within inches, nibbling at lenses and boots. Needless to say, everyone was enchanted. @ナショナルジオグラフィック @thephotosociety @natgeocreative @franslanting
