Fire and Ice at Sunrise Beneath the Granite Towers of Torres del Paine
The alarm was set for 5 a.m., but the promise of sunrise had already pulled me out of my warm sleeping bag. Beneath a sky still filled with a few stars, I climbed through the darkness and reached Mirador Base Torres just as the morning light appeared. Moments later, the rising sun illuminated the Torres in fiery orange while their reflections shimmered across the glacial lake. It was one of those rare moments when the photograph and the experience itself felt equally unforgettable.
