Towers of Paine- A Welcome Distraction

It’s easy to become completely wrapped up thinking about the COVID pandemic. In fact it seems like that’s all I’ve worked on about for days and days. This Saturday afternoon I took a break to make this print, a print I’ve been thinking about printing for a couple of years. This photograph is a sunrise view of the Torres del Paine (Towers of Paine) in Patagonia (Chile), and it was quite a pain to backpack up there with about 50 pounds of photo and camping gear for a three day backpack. Fortunately I had Erin for a companion, and she was very patient. Thanks to Regina (a six-footer) for holding up the print- easily the biggest one I’ve made yet. I think it turned out OK!
