Mr Penguin

I'm sure this penguin was purple before I took this! Anyway he's been part of bathtime fun for the kids for over 8 years and every now and then we recreate a really old game we made up called "whiskey" where Mr Penguin swims around the bath getting thirsty and gratefully accepts a "drink" but don't ever give him Whiskey as he goes full on crazy!

Had a day working/tidying at home and then discovered it was very wet outside when I ventured into the open so went for this!

Ha, I would never give a Penguin whiskey and do believe full on crazy would take place. This made me laugh. Fun shot.

I swear you hit the pop page every day

Quack!

[Aaron L]

Even though it's a Peguin. Doh.

[Richard Tyson]

@azza_l Yeah I may have to do a mini-series featuring Mr Penguin!

[Richard Tyson]

@azza_l Not sure what sound penguins make. Only ever heard Pingu!

[Donna Pike]

Mr. Penguin is so cute. I shot some beautiful deep-purple Orchids that are blue in every photograph I take of them. I don't know what causes this.

[Aaron L]

@rich57 haha, would love to hear an impression, if 365 had audio upload! You can't beat your bench series though

[Richard Tyson]

@azza_l Just got three London jobs come in today to arrange over next fortnight and when I'm discussing details and whatnot I'm thinking bench time as my first priority. But obviously I'm not saying it out loud !

[Richard Tyson]

@pikeworld Yeah just checked and Mr Penguin is definitely purple but when I look at him through the lens he turns blue!

[Aaron L]

@rich57 that's brilliant how 365 comes in to your head straight away ove work. Where is the bench excactly? I'm gonna get one..next time i'm up town (not meaning to piss on your fire, but would be cool if random london 365er's added to it)

[clarebear]

This is really cute, caught my eye on the most popular page! Fav!

[Richard Tyson]

@azza_l Yeah definitely. Walk towards Nelson's Column from the National Gallery. Go down the steps and it's the first one on the right.

[Rui Medeiros Silva]

Very nice! It looks so funny and I like the DOF!

[Bugik]

Ha ha so cute!

[Dennis Natividad]

cool photo!

[Aaron L]

@rich57 cool man

[Sharlotte Fondeur]

[Rebbecca Castillo]

very cute Richard- I hope the kiddos aren't drinking the whiskey either LOL :)

[Teresa (pocketmouse)]

Heheh, very cute! Love the focus and composition and inclusion of all the bath-things in the background. :)

[Lux Vivens]

What an adorable little fellow!

[taleweaver]

that's awesome! did it also teach the kids to stay away from whiskey themselves? :)

[Cynthia C.]

Lol, cute! Nice pic.
