		We saw lots of leopard seals. Well, lots meaning maybe a dozen all told. There's something very reptilian about them. They have a narrow head, about the same thickness of their necks, which is rather serpentine. They can grow up to around 12 feet, and its easy to see how a large specimen could give rise to tales of sea monsters and sea-serpents ... Shot on Fuji Velvia ISO 50 using a Nikon F5 and an AFS 300mm f4 lens.
