Visual explorations in Alaska with photographer Patrick Endres

South Georgia Island – King Penguins

Beyond Alaska, South Georgia Is.By Patrick EndresFebruary 7, 20145 Comments

The wildlife density found on South Georgia Island is mind-bending and not easily or adequately portrayed in a picture. On a ridge overlooking this long beach, the king penguin rookery was filled with birds and raucous noises. The different colors, notably the brown stripes in the crowd of birds are the young chicks sporting a…

Journeys abroad in 2010

Antarctica, Beyond Alaska, Birds, Falkland Islands, Galapagos, Galleries, Landscapes, Nature, Peru, South Georgia Is.By Patrick EndresJanuary 4, 201118 Comments

South Georgia Island

Beyond Alaska, Birds, South Georgia Is.By Patrick EndresJanuary 7, 20101 Comment

On the eve of Jan 6 we arrived at South Georgia Island after a few days of open ocean travel from the Falkland Islands. While artfully dodging a pathway through a beach littered with fur seals, elephant seals, and king penguins, my brain was in stimulus overload. This includes sight, sound, and smell. Two of…
