Story:
We were visiting the picturesque town of Valparaíso with some friends who recommended checking out a place called Las Docas and Laguna Verde. Although it wasn’t far, it took us some time to reach the location because the route in 1992 was a dirt and narrow road. I wanted to get to the seashore, but it was quite a bit lower than the parking area, and there was a steep walking trail to navigate. By the time we finally made it to the seashore, it was already 5 PM, and the winter sun was beginning to set. This is one of the few images I managed to capture.
