A king Penguin and Antarctic Fur Seal with the M/V Ushuaia

Last week on Thursday 4th December, the MV Ushuaia grounded in the Antarctic Peninsula. Luckily, nobody was hurt and all the passengers have been taken safely off the ship. Full details can be found at the IAATO website  (see the press release section). We sailed on the M/V Ushuaia on our trip to the Falkland Islands, South Georgia Island and Antarctica back in January 2008. The ship has a great crew and we wish them well. One of the photographs I took on that trip is shown on the left, with the M/V Ushuaia on the horizon with a King Penguin and Antarctic Fur seal in the foreground.

Images from our 3.5 day trip to Northern Ireland are now online. We had a great time travelling with a friend. Although we had typical weather… two days of rain and one good day, the scenery and people were “grand”. Next time we’ll plan a longer trip so that we can cover Ireland. I’m still processing some of the images, so more may be added in the future. You can access the photos via the Galleries tab or directly using this link.

Photographs from our trip to Baja California Sur, Mexico, are now online. This trip included photographing California Gray whales. You can access the photographs via the Galleries tab or directly using this link.

We have 47 of our photographs on display in the gallery at Keeble & Shuchat Photography. The collection consists of landscape and wildlife photography from the African Savannah to the frozen continent of Antarctica. The exhibitions runs Dec 2 through Jan 15. We’ll be holding a reception on Saturday January 10th 2pm-5pm. The photographs are in the gallery, which is up the stairs and past the darkroom/repair department.
