Osorno and its masterpiece Photo

Photographer’s Note

How I told you before, in the ancient times the waters of Todos Los Santos lake went to Llanquihue lake but an eruption of Osorno closed the route and the waters were obligated to find another way, creating these rapids. Llanquihué lake is located in the other side of the volcano while Todos Los Santos Lake is located not so far at right this view.
...................................................
Como já contei antes, as águas do lago de Todos os Santos seguiam para o lago Llanquihué mas uma erupção do Osorno fechou o caminho e as águas tiveram que abrir outra rota, criando estas corredeiras. O lago Llanquihué está logo atrás do vulcão enquanto o lago T.os Santos está a poucos km à direita.

Hello Jorge,
the colours of your picture are just fantastic, the sparkling water is almost as white as the snow on the top of the mountain, the blue tones of water match the sky. Really cool image - in the right sense of the word - I would not like to fall into the water really :-)
Bravo
Best regards
Romana

Olá Jorge!
Sem palavras... adoro esse vulcão! Acabei de colocar uma foto dele aqui, mas, apesar do POV e da composição estarem boas, infelizmente tirei com uma máquina de qualidade inferior! Enfim, quis compartilhar a beleza do lugar, que aqui, na sua foto de grande qualidade está lindo e perfeito!
Parabéns!
Grande abraço,
Neyvan

Hi Jorge,
congratulation on this great photo!
Composition is very carefull, with the volcano in the middle background and the rapid river in the foreground. The symetry of the mountain is simply perfect. Thanks for sharing

Jorge,
Wow, this is a fantastic shot. Perfect sharpness and clarity. I love the composition of this one with layer of rocks in the power rapid river, leading to the forest and to this stunning view of the snow covered volcano. All elements is perfectly placed in the right locations as if you planned it all along. I have considered going to Chile, but not too seriously, now I have to really consider it. My best complements and regards. Thank you so much for this amazing shot and thanks for your visit to my gallery. I will put you on my favorite after this one.
Way

Olá Jorge,
ficou bonita essa imagem com o vulcão ao fundo, e acredito que essas águas limpas devem vir daquelas geleiras também, correto?
Parabéns e Abraço!

Hello Jorge,
A great view to the beautiful volcano11
Impressive cone shape and the coat of snow adds to the beauty, I like inclusion of the river and the rocks in front to create depth...
A well balanced composition with sharp fine details!
Greetings,

Oi Jorge,

Este lugar e fabuloso! Uma boa perspectiva e composicao, embora a pedra no centro seja um pouquinho de distracao, mas imagino que seja dificil um POV diferente nestas situacoes.

Abracos,

Flavia

Hi Jorge - I remember this nice spot, but it was rainy when I visited, so I appreciate this shot, in excellent weather and pretty light, nicely and efficiently capturing the beauty of this place. Regards, Daniel

Hola Jorge, ya nos tienes acostumbrado a tus hermosas fotos. Me gusta mucho el PDV de esta toma. Normalmente el volcán Osorno es mostrado desde el lago LLanquihue y creo que desde este ángulo se ve más hermoso aún.
Es increíble lo suave que se ve la nieve, pero la realidad es otra. Yo he subido hasta el centro de sky (La Burbuja) que hay en su ladera y desde cerca se pueden apreciar las enormes y peligrosas grietas que existen.
Por otra parte, el color de las aguas del Petrohué es fascinante. Una gran toma, felicitaciones!!
Galoy.

bakes888 (18055) 2008-05-24 22:01

Hi Jorge. I love this shot. Well chosen POV and well considered composition with all the major elements perfectly placed to lead the eye around the scene. Wonderful colours and clarity also. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Oi Jorge ,
Que lugar lindo com uma visão deslumbrante desse vulcão coberto de neve, a agua tem uma cor fantástica é agua do degelo ,gostei destas pedras de origem vulcânica em primeiro plano , parabéns!!!
Um abraço Gonçalo

Olá Jorge,
Há uns dias descobri umas fotos desta montanha de um dos meus membros favoritos do TE, o capthaddock. É realmente um local impressionantemente belo. Aqui, além da montanha temos estes rápidos em 1º plano, com os quais arranjou uma compo magnífica. è uma foto cheia de força, com imenso impacto visual.
Um abraço, José.

What a beautiful landscape.
I like the rocks in the foreground with water running on them.
The volcano is just fantastic.
Well done!

Hi Jorge

Que vista tão bonita, Jorge. A presença do Osorno é impressionante, fazendo lembrar-me um pouco do famoso Fuji no Japão - se bem que este deve ser mais pequeno...Subir a montanhas é das coisas que mais me dá prazer na vida e se bem que este parece ter demasiada neve, dá-me vontade de ir por aí fora ao seu encontro. Este 1º plano dá muita força à composição. Excelente foto.
um abraço,
ricardo

Hi Jorge, this looks like Mount Fuji. Did you also shot this at slow shutter speed? the effects of slow shutter on the water would have been nice

Quelle silhouette parfaite invraisemblable! Un cône volcanique d'une esthétique rare ici parfaitement cadré avec ce torrent turquoise au 1er plan

hi Jorge,
this is really great, I like a lot the combination of snow-capped volcano and white rapids in the foreground, that's a strong illustration of the power of nature. stark beauty in this scene, I hope some day I get back to Chile and have a chance to visit the Lake region.

best,
Kristine

Hi Jorge,

regards,
Foozi
