Through the lens: Magical Patagonia

Beauty can be found in Patagonia almost anywhere you look, but there are three places that have a truly magical quality. Travelling to the Argentine town of El Chalten will get you access to see two majestic mountain-tops, Cerro Torre and Mt Fitz Roy. Then the town of El Calafate will be your base to see Perito Merino, an epic glacier that is literally too large to photograph. Some moody and memorable photographs are below.

Feeling insignificant.

This remote part of South America owns some the world’s most epic views. The photos don’t do it justice.
