Newborn Elephant Seal Pup.

Nikon D1h, 300mm f/2.8 AF-S, TC-14e, Matrix Metering, 1/320, f/4.5, ISO 320, -1.0EV, RAW Format, Auto WB, Auto Tone, Gitzo 410, Wimberly Sidekick.

This pup was less than 12 hours old when this image was taken. I hadn't seen him the day prior but was there screaming his head off when I arrived in the morning. He seemed to prod his mom to wean. She, however, seemed more interested in sleep..
