Macquarie Island 1968: Light-mantled Sooty Albatross and chick

The Light-mantled Sooty Albatrosses nest on very steep (and dangerously unstable) slopes on the sides of the plateau. They have no natural land predators, so are very unconcerned by photographers (well, I guess within reason). From an old Kodachrome slide taken with Minolta SR1 and Auto Rokkor 135mm 2.8 lens.
