Dec. 18, Punta Arenas, Chile: Magdalena and Marta Islands

The weather was perfect:  beautiful clouds, filtered sunshine and almost no wind.  The perfect conditions to go to Magdalena Island and Marta Islands, a Natural Monument with about 70,000 Magellanic penguins and other seabirds.  Here is a small portfolio of my photos.
