Congratulations to dbehrens for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 10 votes - View Previous Winners

I recently posted a pic titled The trail to Laguna Succia, which was a nasty hike but with a great beginning. I thought at least I should post a pic at destination!

As always C&C appreciated.

I keep saying to myself, "Must not look at plane tickets to Chile" After looking at images like this, I think I am likely to fail!

Beautiful image! What a fantastic place. I like this better than the first images at the beginning of the trail.

Dave - I like this a lot. Well balanced in the foreground elements - and with the clouds - the mountain balances too. Been thinking it would have been nice to see Fitz Roy during our visit this evening - but starting to appreciate the fact that the mountain from this vantage is too far right. In the end - we lucked out - or at least that's what I'm going to keep telling myself when I think back about what a pain in the ass it was to get there!

Thanks for the feedback and glad you like it. Its so tempting to dial back the color when its so intense!

Well Ryan - I said this was a once in a lifetime trip - but now I've done this twice and am even contemplating doing it "just one more time"! All I can say is if you put Patagonia on your list and enjoy magnificent landscape then you won't regret it!

Okay - Todd. Maybe one more time . . . with backpacks! And glad you like the pic!

Wild nature at its best; a bit threatening looking mountains and glacier. I like it a lot.

Very nice Dave indeed. Too bad you couldn't see Fitz Roy. A week earlier would make a huge difference....

Thanks. I think I tried 12-28mm and decided keeping it tight at 28mm worked best.

Wild is an understatement! No trail - lots of boulder hopping and side-hilling skree and then to top it off lots of wind with gusts hitting 60+ mph. More than once I got slammed off my feet!

Yep - with the exception of our first morning it was a week without the main attraction Fitz Roy. But we concluded its more than the rock!

Dave,

This is absolutely stunning. It's one of those images that is almost haunting by its composition and beauty. Really well done. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful. Taming the bright portion of the sky would make it even stronger.
