  >> 1911-14 / photographer Frank Hurley This appears to be the same photograph that is identified as being taken by Harold Hamilton (1885-1937) in the Sir Douglas Mawson Collection at the National Library of Australia.   [A young lone penguin, Macquarie Island] [between 1911 and 1914]

  dramatic, and all those penguins in their dress-suits who do not care....

• Herbert Harper said:

  Great title. There is a metaphor there somewhere.

• ozpenguin99 said:

  This is similar to another Frank Hurley photograph in the collection of the National Gallery of Australia. It would have been taken in December 1911, not 17 September 2008 :-)

• Sandra Schwab said:

  that's EXACTLY what my Standard Poodle comes in looking like after a romp in the snow~ I wonder what a Penguin's body temperature is...Poodles are +10 to humans and cause this snow-ball affect from their heat...weird~
