HISTORIA DE UN VIAJE

 

El día pintaba hermoso, a pleno sol. Faltaban apenas tres días para que llegara la primavera de aquel año 2012.

Había recorrido 120 Km. desde Mendoza capital hasta la Ciudad de Uspallata por la Ruta Nacional Nº 7.

Paré a comer algo en esa bonita ciudad del noroeste de Mendoza y seguí camino hasta mi objetivo final.

Mi intención era llegar hasta el Cristo Redentor de los Andes, justo en el límite con la República de Chile.

Tenía por delante, otros 100 Km. siempre por la Ruta 7 aunque, en este caso, entrando cada vez más en la Cordillera.

Luego de parar a tomar fotos en Puente del Inca, seguí camino hasta la entrada del mirador del Cerro Aconcagua.

De pronto, las nubes comenzaron a ponerse cada vez más oscuras, más espesas.

Paré a tomar un café en un bar de la base del cerro... y mientras saboreaba aquel rico café informaron que, a partir de ese punto, la Ruta 7 había sido cerrada por la fuerte nevada. Me faltaban apenas unos 30 Km. para llegar a destino.

No pude llegar al Cristo Redentor de los Andes pero el viaje valió la pena por la belleza del recorrido.

Como muestra de lo que les cuento, aquí les dejo una de las tantas fotos de mi paso por la Cordillera de los Andes.

Lo peor de todo, aunque inolvidable también, fue el regreso a la Ciudad de Mendoza, ya que mi auto no estaba preparado para hacer patinaje sobre hielo.

INCA JAY

Out of hundreds of beautiful birds we photographed in Colombia recently, the Inca Jay has to be at the top of the list for beauty. When I saw this fellow fly by and land I could not believe my eyes. I fired off about fifty shots in four seconds with most being good. Usually I don’t like bright lighting in the background, but I loved how this image worked out with the light surrounding the tail area. The combination of yellow, pastel green, bright blue, white,black, and aqua in this species as well as the unusual bright blue frontal crest are unique.
