The Gloaming of Cerro Torre

It was a very exciting experience to the region of Patagonia. During a

3-week expedition in April 2015, we explored both Torres del Paine in

Chile and Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina through extensive

hiking and backpacking. This gallery contains some images I made from

this trip, which, I believe are adding a new dimension to my journey

of mountain photography.

We camped two nights near Laguna Torre. This image was taken on the

second day after sunset, while lenticular clouds were forming above

Cerro Torre. Thanks for viewing this image.

Beautiful colours and composition. Congrats.

Yan Zhang,

Trully impressive photograph. I live in Patagonia and I know what I say. To Do such a shot in only 2 days, is a miracle or very good luck with the weather. Deserves a 7.

Will go to my favourites. Speed was around 1/30 s?

Fantastic image of a fantasy land! My dream is a vacation in Patagonia!

Daniel, the speed was 0.3 second. For this shot, capturing the water flowing details was a main task for me, while the rest elements of the scene were already in place. By the way, I spent 2 weeks in El Chalten, so I had a chance to watch out the weather changes, and headed for backpacking trips to various locations.

Yan Zhang,

Even with two weeks in Chalten, you were lucky. I have been on some locations in Torres del Paine up to 5 weeks before some magic light happened. Thanks for the speed information. I am happy that so good photographers come and visit Patagonia. You are one of them and we all can learn from you.

Excellent!
