Tierra del Fuego - The southernmost inhabited place on Earth, home to the most austral city, Ushuaia, the Island of Tierra del Fuego translates as the “Land of the Fire”.
An amazing blend of forests, rivers, sea, mountains and glaciers this place is also home to many curios animals and plants, some of them unique.
This particular photo I took in the vicinity of Ushuaia and what you see here is the “ cerro” or the peak of the tallest local mountain, Monte Olivia, flanked by a seagull in the air.

Beautiful shot Radu, the purple pink sky adds nice background color to Monte Olivia's refreshing crisp details. The seagull was there at the right time. Paul :)

Beautiful detail. I love the shadows of the clouds on the white snow.

Very nice composition Radu. I like the saturation of the colors. Well done.

Hi Radu
I really like the composition with the gull seeming so big next to the mountain. Just wish there had been a bit more light.
Regards Toni

Beautiful photo!
Mountain looks wonderful with the pink BG and the gull is interesting though a bit strange bonus.
I like it very much :)
