In the Ocean's Court, where bubbles rise and penguins waltz,
The royal bath begins—a grand aquatic event..
With tuxedos glistening and feathers flattened,
They waddle with purpose—dignified and aloof.
This photograph was captured during my expedition to Antarctica in early 2020—a journey that was less about reaching the edge of the world and more about witnessing life at its extreme.
That morning, over 300,000 King Penguins filled South Georgia Island with their vibrant chorus. I discovered not just life, but thousands of thriving communities. They may bath in the harshest of places, but it's clear—no one faces tough times alone.
