Story:
This was our first visit to Torres del Pain. My wife and I were staying in a hotel that overlooked the Grey Lake. One evening while having dinner with the beautiful view of the lake, snow covered mountains and the floating icebergs, we saw a group of wild horses playing in the nearby beach, it was 9PM but still had good light.
The following morning, we went to the beach where the horses had played and adjacent to it there was a small island. Trekking through the island, we were able to see the floating icebergs. This is one of the many images I made there.
20 years later, with the global working, the icebergs melt before the reach the end of the lake where I took this image.
