Blessed to capture Condors flying over the Andes.
In the second mountain range image there is a single condor flying over the peaks of Mount Fitz Roy. (tough to see on mobile)
Mount Fitz Roy is known as Cerro Chaltenbin the Tehuelche language (which means โsmoky mountainโ) and is almost always covered with clouds.
The mountain is named in honor of Robert Fitz Roy, the captain of Charles Darwinโs second expeditions in South America,
The first image is also one of my favorite shots of Cerro Torre and Mount Fitz Roy together. Two iconic mountains in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.
