We were on a full day excursion, so a lot of elements for taking pictures were out of my control - timing and vantage point. I also had to try to work around the lighting and weather conditions. I guess when you are on vacation and not a photo job (not that I would know what that is like!), you don't have multiple days to go back and try again, so this was a one-time chance for me. The mountains certainly create their own weather patterns, so the closer we got to the glaciars, the more clouds and rain drops we experienced.

Copyright (C) 2010 Mary WeilandI will write more about the trip and post additional photos in the next couple of weeks. It just feels overwhelming now! I will say this - I absolutely fell in love with Argentina. The people were so friendly and welcoming. The landscapes were beautiful. The wine and meat were super tasty! The pace of life was easy-going. Being from a big city where everyone is rushed to get to their destinations and hurried to get the check and get out of a restaurant, Argentina taught me how to relax a little bit - don't rush, take your time. What's the big hurry afterall?! Photography-wise, I was so happy with the new Nikon 10-24mm lens I bought for the trip. I had so much fun shooting with it and with the digital infrared camera as well. Stay tuned for more! I will also post to Facebook and Flickr - will send you the links personally if interested.
