Photographer's Note

Série sobre minha viagem a USHUAIA - TIERRA DEL FUEGO (TERRA DO FOGO) - ARGENTINA - AMÉRICA DO SUL - De 05 a 12 de Julho de 2008 - Nº 009!

(Series on my Trip to USHUAIA - TIERRA DEL FUEGO/Land of Fire/Tierre du Feu - ARGENTINA - SOUTH AMERICA - From July 5th to 12th, 2008 - #009!)

CERRO CASTOR IV - Another picture taken at the "Cerro Castor" Ski Resort.

"With a skiable drop that reaches 772 meters, Castor Mount distributes 19 runs with different levels of difficulties and off-track sectors into 20 kilometers. Nordic ski is the most outstanding modality, with circuits that go through "lenga" forests which can also be visited on snow rackets.
Unlike the general belief, Castor enjoys very good weather and the best quality of powder snow, due to the stability of its temperature, offering one of the longest seasons in South America.
Modern lifts, skiing and snowboarding school, and all the services that complement the infrastructure and Ushuaia scenery, turn Castor Mount into a complete resort, to ski in the confines of the world.

How to Get There: located 26 km from Ushuaia, where there is an international airport and a tourist harbor for large size vessels. It can also be accessed by land through National Route 3.
Season: from July 09 to October 16.
Weather: in winter, temperatures range between 5º and -5ºC.
Activities: skiing, snowboarding, snowblading
Services: school, first aid stand, boutique."

Hi Neyvan,
Beautiful natural impression with nice vertical composition.Very much like the long shades on the snow. The huge mountains which can be seen between the trees are beautiful. Peaceful and calm atmosphere. Congratulations. Have a nice week!
George

Hello Neyvan,
A very pretty winter composition. I like the view of the mountain through the trees and the long shadows across the snow. Good natural colours and sharpness.

Olá Neyvan,
conseguiu um belo efeito nas árvores aqui, e com boa qualidade, mesmo com a limitação de Kb do TE, sempre dificulta esse tipo de foto né. Gostei das cores suaves também.
Parabéns e Abraço

Bom-dia Neyvan,
As sombras azuladas dos troncos sobre a neve são um elemento que atrai o olho. Uma bonita composição que deixa aparecer na profundidade, as montanhas aceradas e iluminadas bem. Bonita uma vista poética. Felitações.
Bom dia.
Cordialmente.
Joël

hi Neyvan

Greetings from Borneo!

A great view of the snow scenery showing your trekking to the countryside and the mountains. Very nice soft snow texture at the FG and light+shadow.

Hello Neyvan
the glistening snow is amazing - reminds me of Jan.20th, 1993... And the snow-capped mountains too. This is Argentina? Could have been Buchenberg... Wonderful shot with great details! Well done! I love it!
Thanks and take good care,
Linda

The name "land of fire" seems rather strange when you see this capture. It's a classical setup here with the trees in front; the background is impressive with those mountains. I like the diagonal shadowlines in front.

At a glace this looks like a simple landcape shot, once looking closer, it's really has great depth, I like the mountain in the background through the treelines. Good DoF and nice to have some open foreground to step into the landscape. thanks Neyvan for another beuatiful winter scene, though you should be enjoying the summer down there. Cheers
Way
