The Bouvet Penguin is an old friend of mine, and considers himself my muse (a penguin Euterpe?), inspiration and creative partner. He may be right. All I know is that he urged me to put up this blog to promote black & white photography, which I guess is natural for a penguin.

What can be expected From the Bouvet Penguin? Certainly there will be some b&w pics. We hope there will be not too many rants about the conditions on his childhood shores, at the Bouvet Island (which he finds too cold, and regrettably void of margaritas). Maybe more.

Please subscribe (through the RSS feed) and hope the best. I know I do…

Cheers, Basil
