"TREMUOLOUS FACE"
When you have visited a place that many times that you can predict its light, its weather patterns, the composition for that moment, that magical moment all falls into one epic moment.
One of the reasons why I do workshops in this a

Tehuelche Flame

Chalten, smoking mountain, tribes of the land thought it to be a vulcano, in harmony with the land, Upon my presence her glory reveal, light to a candle in a sole moment

Above the Clouds

DRACONES HORTUS

Clinging to the edge of her receding dwell, boulders may spool to crashing plaines, cloud will disguise existence or myth, her firing eyes and breath scour forgotten enemy, as we are absent the dragon will feast on her playground bel

TEHUELCHE'S TENOR

Fitzroy, the mythical mountain that stands out from the rest of the peaks. Chaltén is a term of the Aonikenk language by which the ancient Tehuelches named this mountain they considered sacred. Its meaning is “Smoky Mountain”, beca

BANDITS SPIRIT

Legend whispers only in emptiness,
The field whistles her power for the valley below,
Their ghosts form in darkness and in flame,
To stare down upon who once resist,
At dusk numen is alone to them fight again,
The bandits return at la

THE FIELD OF AN EMPEROR

An extensive sward immersed above 2000 metres dominated by the great rock mastiff and the blanket of high alpine atmosphere. The wildflowers, lakes and surrounding wildlife cradled by the mass presence of the great rock like

MAESTRI’S TALE

Since 1959 the stories at 3128 whispers through the clouds that blanket Cerro Torre Peaks. Only their spirit knows. Light bounces of the peaks to ignite its power to the weak below..... was it Meastri or Chiappa who conquered...will w

a spell of chaos to the land, brewing of storm clouds spiral his home, enchanted and trapped as he guard the treasure, no escape nor fiction nor fantasy.

LOST SHEPHERDS

WHISPERS OF TEHUELCHE

The last spoken word fell not long ago, the smokey mountain within their spirit, what was it to their culture, another culture, another spirit fallen, I heard the whispers upon its light, power, jagged teeth, the air, wind and

RAFTER RISING

Zero gravity exists on the floor of the ocean bed. A world beyond our curiosity. While scouting the plains of this area surrounding the Fitzroy Mountain mass, the surrounding flora and geology gave me a sense that this earth was once b

RIO FITZ ROY

On day 11 of our Patagonia Landscape Photography Workshop we left our dawn location at Laguna Torre to hike back down to El Chalten town prior to our departure for Perito Moreno Glacier. Travelling along the track parallel with Rio Fitz

TARN FLOE

The glacier advances forward with immense pressure as it expands and forces itself to break and shatter. Sections of it melt away into the lagoon below as others distance themselves and change shape. Moving further away the light and tempe

GENESIS AFTER CHAOS

After chaos there will be a deep void,
Erebus and his brothers are born,
At the edge of chaos and darkness,
Three peaks and his surrounding brothers take form,
Gaze darkness in the eyes, and see his power and form
At peak of our

CALASCIO’S ROCK

ABSOLUTELY CURTAINS

Any master and his sons, their girth on earth, burn those trees, remove the light that bleeds, his diamond won’t shine without them.

There is so much history looking out at this plateau and when we are here photographing its ever changing light and seasons within that dead silence, you can almost here the fighting between brigands and shepherds and the h
