A Harbor Seal giving us attitude, by sticking his tongue out while we were photographing him.

What I loved about this seal when we first spotted him, was that the rocks he was laying on were completely covered in kelp, and getting the kelp in front of him in focus provided an extra element to the photo than just the seal on a rock photos I tend to see.
