EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a killer view! These mischievous orcas are taking spying to a whole new level as they spy-hop their way to observe their potential prey, the Weddell Seal. With their heads popping out of the icy waters of Marguerite Bay, these intelligent creatures are preparing for an epic game of knock-the-seal-off-the-ice by creating a massive wave. It's like something straight out of an action movie! The frozen backdrop and icy waters only add to the drama as these apex predators strategize and work together in perfect harmony. Talk about teamwork! But don't be fooled by those innocent-looking faces - danger lurks beneath those playful eyes. This freeze frame captures not just curiosity but also the raw power and intelligence possessed by these magnificent dolphins of the sea. The Antarctic Peninsula may be cold, but it's definitely not lacking in excitement! As part of BBC's Frozen Planet series, this incredible shot showcases nature at its most thrilling. From predation to survival instincts, every aspect of the food chain is on display here. So hold onto your hats (or should we say fins?) because this print will transport you right into the heart-pounding world where vulnerability meets strength, and where one wrong move can mean life or death.
