entry description
When you are in Torres Del Paine, it’s like you’re floating along the surface of an alien landscape. It's an absolutely different world, different planet, different reality. The wild beauty forces you to consider things like ‘why did people stop being curious about the cosmos and stars, and humanity’s place in them?’ When I was there at sunrise with the 70 mile an hour wind in my hair, in front of the lake that like an ocean covered me with the blue cold waves, it was so freezing, I was mesmerized by the mountains and the snow on top of their peaks, the light slicing through the clouds, and the rainbows, and the moon. It all was rolled out before me like a celestial parade. Can all of it exist in one minute, in one second? Yes, it can! It's indescribable... I felt so small in front of all of it. I felt like suddenly I am a galaxy myself.about the photographer
