05/09.02.10 BUENOS AIRES
I guess this is a holiday… no heavy backpacks to carry around and no alarm clock at 5 am to check the light!
We spend a few days in BA relaxing, visiting the city and catching up with old friends.
The city life if overwhelming after six weeks in the wilderness.

02.02.10 TORRE DEL PAINE – MID SECTION OF W TRAIL
Wake up call again at 5 am.. overcast with some light rain…
…who said that being a wildlife photographer is like being on a holiday all the time…??? Let me try to understand… do you usually wake up every morning at 5am when you’re on vacation???
After crossing Pehoe Lake with the boat we hike the middle section of the famous W trail. The light is really flat for photography but David paints a very delicate watercolour of “Los Cuernos del Paine”.

Back at the campground for the evening we are blessed with some good views.
