Story:
We decided to have a family reunion for Christmas, in the South of Chile. We selected the location of Ensenada (translated as cove), which in front of the Osorno volcano.
My brother in law went out rowing a boat around the lake, but when he decided to return, the wind blew against him, taking a very long and stressing time to get back. As we did not have a motorboat to rescue him, we had to pray for the best.
People staying at same location preferred taking images of the volcano that is to the left, but if I would have include it, my photograph would have become a postcard.
While waiting, the Golden Light painted the sky that was captured by my eye as well as my camera of the Ensenada sunset.
