Probably one of my favourite places in the world! This is the aptly named “Valley of the Moon” (Valle de la Luna) in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile. In the distance, the peak of the Volcano Licancabur seems to float above the horizon. It is just before sunset when the rocks take on a golden glow. The moment is short lived as the tropical dusk descends quickly. The white stuff is salt and the lack of humiidity makes the Valley of the Moon devoid of life. This is the most inhospitable place on the planet.

A half days riding out of Antofagasta (uphill most of the way) I parked my bicycle and sat down for lunch. I wanted a vehicle to add scale to the vista. A red truck approached. I composed the image and waited… Damn I hadn’t wound the film on. Twenty minutes later another truck approached… click.

We’ve already had the Dos Amigos – and by popular request, here are the Cuatro Amigos, this time four Vicuñas in the high altitude of the Altiplano in northern Chile. I didn’t line them up like this for the shot – they obviously are natural models, and yes, the sky really was very blue! ;o)

... well a lot of people would say this place is more like Mars (how they know, I’m not sure). Nevertheless, on a cold frozen day here in Merrie Olde England I enjoy looking at one of my favourite places which is warm and dry and in Chile. This is the Valley of the Dinosaurs in the Atacama Desert. The driest place on earth – that suits me perfectly – someone pass me a cider…...... ;o)

One lone desk in an otherwise empty classroom. The ghost town that is Humberstone, an abandoned nitrate mining town in the Atacama Desert, near Iquique in northern Chile. I’ve converted it to B&W in PS CS4 and on another layer in Overlay blending mode I’ve used a texture of the patterns that the sun makes on the sandy bed of a tannin stained creek.
