First-Ever Underwater Photos of the Ghost Seal? How One Photographer Nailed the Shot of a Lifetime in Antarctica

史上首次水下拍摄‘幽灵海豹’?南极摄影师如何抓拍到一生难遇的瞬间

First-Ever Underwater Photos of the Ghost Seal? How One Photographer Nailed the Shot of a Lifetime in Antarctica

直到现在我们才第一次看到罗斯海豹在水下的样子?这感觉就像在太阳系里发现了一颗新行星——不过是为海豹极客准备的。贾斯汀·霍夫曼可不是运气好,他可是用了15个南极季去追这个瞬间。

罗斯海豹仅占南极海豹总数的1%,每天潜水超百次,这就解释了为何它们如幽灵般难以捉摸。它们不是在躲藏,只是根本抓不住踪迹。正因如此,野外生物学至今仍是一门半靠艺术直觉,半似巫术的学问。

I’ve led 30 expeditions and never laid eyes on a Ross seal. That’s how rare they are. Seeing one underwater? That’s like spotting Bigfoot swimming laps in a lake.

我带队30次极地探险,从未亲眼见过罗斯海豹。这物种稀有到这种程度。在水下看到它?那就像看见大脚怪在湖里游自由泳。

Cool pics, but let’s be real — we’re spending millions on photographing rare seals while ignoring the fact that the ice they live on is melting. Priorities, people.

照片是挺酷,但说真的——我们花了几百万拍稀有海豹,却忽视它们赖以生存的海冰正在融化。该分清重点了,朋友们。

The fact that we’re only now getting underwater footage of a native Antarctic species should be a wake-up call. This isn’t just about photography — it’s about understanding ecosystems before they vanish.

我们直到现在才获得一种南极本土物种的水下影像,这本身就该是个警钟。这不只是摄影问题——而是在生态系统消失前去理解它们。

Underwater Photographer Enthusiast (水下摄影爱好者)
The lighting in that shot is insane. You don’t get that clarity under pack ice without insane patience and a little luck.

那张照片的光线简直绝了。没有极强的耐心和一点运气,你根本拍不到浮冰下的清晰画面。

So… does this mean we finally know what the Ross seal sings sound like underwater? Asking for a friend.

所以……这是否意味着我们终于知道罗斯海豹在水下的叫声是什么样的了?帮一个朋友问的。

We do have acoustic data — they make eerie, bird-like calls. But still no recordings during deep dives. That’s the next frontier.

我们确实有声学数据——它们会发出诡异的、类似鸟叫的声音。但仍未捕捉到深潜时的录音。那才是下一个前沿。

Imagine tagging one with a camera. We’d get not just behavior, but first-person seal vision. Call it ‘Rosscam’.

想象一下给它装个摄像头。我们不仅能观察行为,还能看到海豹的第一视角。就叫它‘罗斯之眼’吧。
