| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of only three Patagonian glaciers that are not retreating. The terminus of the Perito Moreno Glacier is 5 kilometres (3 mi) wide, with an average height of 60 m (200 ft) above the surface of the water, with a total ice depth of 170 metres (558 ft). It advances at a speed of up to 2 metres (6.6 ft) per day (around 700 metres (2,300 ft) per year), although it loses mass at approximately the same rate, meaning that aside from small variations, its terminus has not advanced or receded in the past 90 years. At its deepest part, the glacier has a depth of approximately 700 metres (2,300 ft). |

Hi Serban,
Very nice panorama. I like the colors of the ice and dramatic shape of the clouds. Did you use HDR technique? Well done :)
regards,
Maciek

Get documentary photo here. Maybe B&W would work too and then the people would be less obvious. Or, keep as is and let the people be there for scale.
Do you have any photo tips for me when I travel to Torres del Paine in December. Thanks. Karin
