Story:
In 2008, I was still using the Alpha 700 that Sony had lent me for testing. I took the camera to its first trial tests before heading on a trip to Santa Cruz, Bolivia, to visit the Espejillos waterfalls, and later to Barcelona.
Upon returning to Chile, I went back to La Parva, where the ski resorts are located near Santiago. The small river I frequently visited had insufficient water and ice for photography. However, on my walk back along the dirt road, I discovered frozen water formations that were interesting to capture. I'm sharing these images with you.
