EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a wind erosion feature on the west flank of the magnificent 6310m Volcan Chimborazo in Ecuador's Central Highlands. The unique type of Andean high paramo, known as puna, is showcased here, its aridity intensified by the rain shadow effect. As sunlight bathes the scene, the colors of this remote and isolated environment come to life. The distant mountain range creates an atmosphere of seclusion and tranquility, emphasizing the untouched beauty of this landscape. The volcanic origins are evident in every detail, with layers upon layers shaped by centuries of natural forces. Ecuador's South American charm is exemplified in this uncommon sight. The photographer skillfully captures not only the physical features but also conveys a sense of awe and wonder that one experiences when encountering such grandeur. As we gaze at this horizontal composition, we are transported to a world far removed from our daily lives. It serves as a reminder that there are still places where nature reigns supreme and human presence is merely fleeting. Robert Francis' photography allows us to embark on virtual journeys to travel destinations like no other. Through his lens, he reveals hidden gems like Chimborazo Province's wind erosion feature – an extraordinary testament to Earth's power and resilience.
