  • Bob Wickham replied

    Highly recommend it. It has a very special ‘feeling’ about it.

    Fabulous shot Bob, on my wish list :-)) Must have been an amazing experience, such a beauty continent.

  • Bob Wickham replied

    Thankyou Varinia, the view is amazing but it’s the magical aura that really stirs the soul.
    I’ve been there twice now, 20 years apart, and both times had the same effect on me.

    Planning a trip to South America next year and this is one place i am definately going to visit! Have a look at my page, i do Australian Panoramic Landscapes.

  • Bob Wickham replied

    Hi Martin, South America is a huge place and theres a lot more to it than a few icons like Machu Picchu and Iguassu Falls. Make sure you allow enough time to explore. Patagonia is a ‘must see’

    I loved Machu Picchu- so many pics you can never choose the one you like best. This one has the clouds rolling in which adds to the mystery of the place – perfect and although I have so many of my own I’m favouriting this one as I don’t have ones with cl;ouds- simply perfect. Liz

  • Bob Wickham replied

    thankyou Braedene, we had to be there early for the clouds. In fact we were so early, we couldn’t see the city at all, because of the clouds

    Magnificent view from this beautiful place!!! Well done Bob!

  • Bob Wickham replied

    Thankyou Veikko, it is an amazing place. It’s more a ‘feeling’ than a view, but the view is beautiful as well.

  • AnnieSnel

    Beautiful image and view!

  • Bob Wickham replied

    Thankyou Annie, much appreciated

  • Rachael Talibart

    Rachael Talibart

    This is a classic view of course, but one that never gets old IMO. And photography of this standard never gets old either. Superb shot. Instant fave. Incidentally, I see that you use my dream camera (I have been lusting after a 5Dii for nearly a year). I assume you are pleased with its performance? your images make a good case for it.

  • Bob Wickham replied

    Thanks Rachael, I’ve tried to include some of the ‘aura’ in my photograph, but nothing beats actually being there.
    Very happy with the camera. Very easy to use, especially if you have had Canon before, and the quality of the images is superb. I shoot in Raw and thats the only way to take advantage of what the camera can offer.

  • Rachael Talibart

    Rachael Talibart

    Thanks, Bob. I’ll get one one day – prices are falling here… I converted to RAW a while ago and now I can’t imagine ever shooting in anything else ;o)

  • Bob Wickham replied 28 days ago

    They’re still a little expensive here but the camera is very good. The video feature would be good for you, especially with the kids.

    Thankyou Sandy, the mist lifted and the sun shone just at the right moment.
