Photos from Ushuaia, Argentina
Hi everyone,
I just wanted to share some photos from my last trip to Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina.
I really had a great time walking through woods, climbing snow covered mountains and watching the sea from beautiful grassy hills. I also had the chance to spot some wildlife, mostly foxes, rabbits and a lot of birds like eagles, seagulls and condors.
It's an amazing place, a bit cold and windy but amazing nonetheless...
Ok, here's the link.
Enjoy!

Some great shots there.
On the first pass through the gallery, about a dozen jump off the screen and grab ye by the throat.
The technical information is also a great help to us wannabes...
Thanks for sharing.

Those photos were just amazing---I can't say I had any favorites but I was amazed at how you could take such pictures of birds. I'm sure glad you posted them. That terrain seems very different to me. I knew roughly where it was (very roughly ) but then I got confused about where Patagonia (which I guess is a region shared by Chile and Argentina, not a governmental name--although the map doesn't make it look shared ) was. And I wasn't sure how close it was to Antarctica---answer: very close. Anyway, I found some maps, not necessarily the greatest, that may help the geographically challenged people like me. I would really like to go to that part of the world. It seems almost a little frightening for some reason, but also just indescribably beautiful.

I'm glad you all liked the photos, thanks for the comments
Cynth, the maps are fine, that's exactly the place. It's quite close to the Antarctica, and many times you can even see the reflected lights of the ice and snow far away on the sky when looking at south.
Patagonia is actually a region, is the southest part of SouthAmerica... maybe this link to wikipedia will be more helpful. Ushuaia is part of Patagonia, but this is the only place with so much variety of terrain, like mountains, plains, hills, woods, tundra and sea. You can even watch the sea from the top of many mountains. There're also many rivers and (some really big) lakes.
