World Photography Day 2017

This week was World Photography Day, and as photography is one of my very favourite hobbies, I always like to mark it in one way or another.

And of course, my very favourite time to take photographs is when I travel.  Everything is new: the shapes, the colours, the sights and the smells.  Travel just makes you want to click your lens as you pass around every corner, as you stop at every view point and as you see each and every new texture on the horizon.  And of course, you want to capture those little moments and remember them forever.  Photography is a great way of doing that.  Of course, it doesn’t capture each and every sense but it’s keeps a little reminder of what happened then and is something we can look back on in years to come and remember.

My favourite photography moments of this year have been:

Photographing the stunning mountains in Torres del Paine National Park, Patagonia. When I look at these photos, I still can’t believe that this place is real.  It just looks too beautiful.Photographing the interesting shapes of Bahá’í Temple, Santiago.Capturing the colours of the most unique and colourful homes in ChiloéPhotographing white on white during a snowy weekend in Cajon del MaipoCapturing Volcano Osorno, Puerto Varas when the clouds cleared to show the viewPhotographing the most beautiful Autumn colours in Conguillo National Park, the colours couldn’t have looked any betterCapturing a stunningly peaceful sunset on the lake in Puerto Varas, the colours were beautifulPhotographing reflections on the stillest of waters in Tamango National ParkPhotographing rugged mountains, glaciers and snow in Cerro Castillo, Patagonia and feeling like I’d never seen anywhere like it!Capturing grey upon grey on a cloudy day Bahía Acantilada
