Our ship left from Valparaiso heading south towards the Chilean fjords.

Valparaíso is Chile’s most important seaport and an increasingly vital cultural center. The city is located in central Chile, where it is capital of the Region of Valparaíso. Valparaiso is also home of the National Congress. Built upon dozens of steep hillsides overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Valparaíso boasts a labyrinth of streets and cobblestone alleyways, embodying a rich architectural and cultural legacy. Valparaíso is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is often considered to be one of Latin America’s most intriguing urban areas.

Hi Sky,
I'm always fascinated by homes built atop hills and mountains. Looks dangerous (from erosion) yet they are pretty to photograph. Colors and sharpness are very attractive, Regards, Danilo

Hi Sky, well it makes me think of Quebec city downtown but more colourful.

Great composition and pov. Thx for showing us the city from the song.

Very sharp image and nice colours.

Have a great day! Yan :)
