    Looks like you could reach up and just touch those clouds! This is breathtaking! Have you ever thought of writing a travelogue? It would make for fascinating reading, kind of like John Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley. I’d buy a copy that’s for sure!

    Thank you, Bonnie! I suppose I could write a travelogue but I have to think what I would do with it! ;o) I’m not an exciting backpacker or anything!

    Thank you. Unfortunately the clouds were much more dense the other end of the lake, over Parinacota! I thought it was usually solid blue skies up here!!!! ;o)

    Nice work Krys. The reflection, or shadow perhaps, of the big gray cloud on the lake is really neat. Great composition.

    Amazing place. Wonderful capture. Polarizer?

  • Krys Bailey

    Krys Bailey in reply to John Wright’s comment, about 1 month ago

    Thanks John! I need to go back there on a clear day. No, no polariser! I rarely use a polariser because it cuts out too much light in our British latitudes, although admittedly I was in the tropics here, but hey ho, old habits die hard! :o)

    Wow, so it is just very naturally clean and clear there! Amazing. I think the light is perfect.

    The light IS pretty perfect in the high altiplano here, although there were a few more clouds than I expected! Grrrrr…........
