"All you see sea lions do most of the day is nap, nap, nap," reminisces Jenny Chua. "You seldom see a sea lion sleeping alone. They like to stay together and cuddle up as close as possible for warmth, softness, and security. I crept up to four dozing sea lions, zooming into them trying to capture their content expressions. The hint of paradise is just at the background. The sounds of waves splashing on the shore become a sweet lullaby under the afternoon sunshine."
