Chopicalqui disappearing

It's pretty normal that the clouds move in and cover the high peaks during the day, and dissolve again in the afternoon. This photo is taken around moraine camp. We're not going to stay here, we'll just have a break on our way down. It seems hard to imagine, but only hours ago, we were up there, on the summit, in bright sunshine and with great views! 18 August 2011.

I love contrast views like this.

Re: Great Lighting!

Thanks. I must admit I just got lucky taking this photo. I saw that the summit was sort of visible, and wanted to take one more shot before it would be hidden altogether. What I didn't realize was that the clouds and the partially sunlit slope would combine so well.
