[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Here we can see a view from Brazo Rico that is a small part of Argentino lake. This place is closed by a big wall of ice that are created in the top of Andes mountains and its bigger part is named Perito Moreno Glacier. This barrier of ice put the waters of Brazo Rico isolated and the level of its waters is ever growing, after some years there is a big rupture of the ice and the waters rush in few time to the main area of the lake, creating a natural show. This place where this shot was took is a peninsula, in front of it, at right, is located the main glacier and the bigger part of the lake we can't to see in this image. If you pay attention in the edges of Brazo Rico you can see a strip without vegetation, what shows that the level of this area isn't so high yet.

Aqui podemos ver uma vista distante do Brazo Rico que é um braço do lago Argentino, isolado deste por uma barreira de gelo cuja parte principal é o famoso Glaciar Perito Moreno. Com o passar dos anos o nível das águas do braço Rico vão aumentando e num determinado dia essa barreira desaba, deixando as águas passarem rapidamente para o lago principal, o que é um show natural.
Este ponto de onde tirei a foto é parte de uma península, ao fundo e à direita está a parte maior do glaciar e do lago Argentino que não podemos ver nesta imagem. Se vocês prestarem atenção poderão notar uma faixa livre de vegetação às margens do Brazo Rico, sinal de que o nível dessas águas não está tão alto ainda.
