Benvido a TN Marcelo.
Nice first post with this Penguin in his natural enviroment, it is a beautiful view. Do you know which specie this is?
You can also take advantage of the 800 pixels size TN offers you, big format is better with lanscapes.
Hope to see more photos and critics soon!

Nice shot! This one looks like a Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) to me. You've captured it nicely, and you must have been quite close to get a shot this good with the A80! My only thoughts are that I'd be tempted to rotate the image fractionally clockwise since there's a marginal tilt on the horizon, and I'm wondering whether that's your shadow in the foreground? Anyway, very nice to see a Penguin in its natural habitat! Good capture :-D

Welcome to TrekNature!

Welcome to TN, and not a bad picture to start with. The composition is good and it only needs a slight tiltas AdrianW has says. Hope to see more posts from you soon.

Welcome to TN Marcelo, Nice shot of the bird here it is well seen in its enviroment. I think adrian has a correct Ident for you.
What you do need to consider when posting to TN is that notes about the subect you post as an image, and about where and how you achieved the shot and any post work you did to it to prepare it for posting here.Be warned there are changes coming about lack of informative notes.

lindo!!!
Amei!
pena a sombra..não é tua, mas deixa para lá..

Hola Marcelo,

Concuerdo con las sugerencias anteriores. Sin embargo, me parece una super foto, me encantan los azules, la composicion y por supuesto el pinguino muy claro.

Saludes,
Iris
