FACE-TO-FACE WITH THE PENGUINS - ATLANTA, GEORGIA AQUARIUM - ISO 400

I love this photo of my granddaughter. The look on her face is that of pure joy. The aquarium has a tunnel you can crawl through and then pop your head up inside a vertical tube and be right there, among the penguins. There are two vertical, stand-up tubes and I took the photo from the second one. The Plexiglas tubes were a bit dirty, but the photo is still one of my favorites from the trip. And, yes, that little guy in the foreground is indeed fast asleep!

"P" (Program) mode, with -1 1/3 manual exposure compensation. "Standard Color" film mode. Automatic white balance. 35mm equivalent focal length of 24mm.

Very incongruous image, Bill. Not only is your granddaughter delighted, but it seems here that she is on exhibit and the penguins are the viewers, even if one is asleep. Wonderful.
