| The Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) is a widespread species of the southern oceans. The individuals in the first three photos, along with many others, visited our ship as we sailed near the Antarctic Peninsula in January, 1996. The shots were taken with a Canon T-90 & FD 400mm F/4.5 lens from a hand-held BushHawk shoulder mount on Fuji Sensia 100 film. |
