Photographer’s Note
The last light in the North West face of Toqllaraju (6.032m), in Peru. We were sleeping there, at 5.100m with this wonderful mountain on sight. After the sunset, some light still arrive to the top of the mountain, with this pink colour... amazing for the senses...

Excelente color rosado. Yo lo he visto pero pocas veces, más usual es ver un poco el naranja cuando el sol se pone, pero aquí está muy bien. La nieve que está por delante está tan azul como el cielo, lo que a mi me parece un buen efecto aunque es algo normal.

Hola Quino,
There are beautiful mountain photos in your gallery !
I like this one for its beautiful sunset coloring on the mountain, the sun color is top too and the details of this great landscape appear well due too to the excellent sharpness, very nice !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Great capture of the sunset colours on this mountain, it must have been quite an experience to witness this beauty ;-))
Good handling of the whites - or should I say "pinks"? ;-))

Fantàstica foto! Perfecta la textura de la neu, el color tant del cel com de la muntanya. Estaves en el lloc perfecte i en el moment adecuat!!
