Incoming Gentoo Penguins

by Andy Pollard

Steeple Jason Island, one of the hardest places to visit in the Falkland Islands, does not have any sand beaches. As a result these amusing, energetic, Gentoo Penguins have to return on the incoming wave and leap ashore avoiding the sea lions. This makes the image relatively unique. This image required a high shutter speed to freeze the action. I also had to get close to the water.
