[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
The picture was taken from Belvedere´s mountain (1992 mts over sea level - latitude 40º 42´S - longitude 71º 37´W).- What you see is what we call "Falso Belvedere" (False Belvedere), because you can get confused if you see the mountains from the Village.

The valley between the two mountains (Cajón Negro = Black Drawer, because the colours and shadows of the mountains that sourround it) was formed by three volcanic periods that were mix with three glacier periods, being the last the one that gave form to the valleys and mountains. In the Drawer two ´glaciars circuses´ can be observed and the birth of the Piedritas stream, who finish its course at the lake that you can see at the back, Nahuel Huapi lake, also with glaciar origin.
There can also be seen a hanging valley: it is the one situated between the two tops. This valley was formed also in the glacier period, and was like a bridge between glaciers.

The vegetation at the summit of the Belvedere corresponds to high mountain: lichens and shrubs of height. Descending you can seen the stocky forests of Lengas and normal high Lengas.

The Cajón Negro and the Falso Belvedere are in the Nahuel Huapi National Park.

The pic was taken with a common camera (Canon sure shot), a cloudy and very windy day. Then was scanned with a Lexmark X1250.

I hope you like it!

Enrico, this is for you, because I know you love mountains, Patagonia and because you get sorprised because I haven´t publish a landscape since long time ago.

Hola Brenda,
Linda e impactante visual, me gusta mucho como se ve ese terreno en extremo escarpado y como se recorta la silueta de esos picos contra los del fondo. Bastante buena la calidad, teniendo en cuenta el escaneado y la poca luz.
Saludos

hello Brenda
Great photo with nice POV and great colors.
It felt a little bit of sharpness.
Nice mountain
Bruno

A pesar de que el enfoque no es una maravilla
:-) el ángulo es bueno y la profundidad. Muchas gracias por tus amables comentarios Brenda.

Hi Brenda,

A nice mountain scenery, the subject is well framed, The point of view is leading our eyes towards the two peaks. There is a good contrast between the colors. Have a nice day.
