A Shivering Penguin

The temperature of 10-15°C that was maintained in its pen was probably a bit too cold for this king penguin which was captured here apparently shivering to keep itself warm.

The motion blur seen here in the feathers was the work of a slow shutter speed of 1/20 second at base ISO in the dimly lit pen. I usually won’t go beyond base ISO with the Leica V-lux 4. The camera was braced on a handrail for this shot.
