Quack Quack Quack

I know penguins don't go quack, but this shot reminds me of when Homer talks to the penguins in the Simpsons (can't find a youtube link, so you'll just have to trust me!)

Anyway, I like this one, but am curious, too much B&W, or does it look alright?

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

@Dimitrios: It was actually very warm, just doesn't look like it!

A little on the dark side, (could be my monitor) but still a great shot of these penguins going about their daily buisness.

@MaryB: Thanks Mary, I purposely made it dark!

Great capture and composition. The bw works, but perhaps a bit lighter/softer.
