Summary

This inspiring, nearly mystical, photographic journey through the one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world traverses the whipped plateau and the extreme coasts, the transparent sea and the highest peaks, and the creatures of the profoundly isolated region of Patagonia. An accompanying essay discusses the region and the photography with lyricism and respect and appears in both Spanish and English. Este viaje visual, inspirador y a veces mistico, pasa por una de las regiones mas espectaculares del mundo: la Patagonia. Desde la meseta variada hasta las costas extremas, el mar transparente hasta las cumbres mas altas, estas fotografias encapsulan la belleza de la tierra, la fauna de una region tan aislada y los remanentes humanos casi invisibles. El ensayo complementario que discute la region y la fotografia con pasion y lirismo aparece tanto en ingles como espanol.
