What events led to this disturbing image? I had always admired penguins after a visit to Sea World. My mother gifted me a beautiful one sculpted in Myrtle Wood from Southern Oregon. I put it on my desk- the rest is history. A penguin was always the go to gift from patients from then on.

With the introduction of digital cameras, my interest in photography renewed. I started to think I could go see and photograph penguins in the wild myself- and it finally happened. When I am not off to check off another species of penguin- I teach Ambulatory Gynecology and Obstetrics for the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
