Lovely Punta Arenas offers stunning views of... grey. miles and miles of grey. Acres and Acres of verdant and carefully cultured grey. Grey like no where else in the world. Brilliant.

Actually, as you all may already know, i am completely happy with the grey. And i am getting a pretty good serving today. this picture seems to pull it together pretty well as the ships are painted steely grey, the water reflects the silvery sky with a titanium glean. Its a small slice of heaven! Posted by Picasa

This morning's sunrise

Good morning everyone. Here was the scene on desk earlier today. We got a frost overnight and the following bold sunrise. The entire area was glowing from the yellowing pink alpineglow and it made for a stunning start to a crazy day so far. Wishing you all the best! Posted by Picasa

looking back...

...into the bright lights of the big city that is Punta Arenas. Today's weather was a study of change. This morning was impeccably calm and warm. I stood on the ice tower's outer railings (90 feet up) and enjoyed the sun's rays with only a t-shirt and jeans. Excited at the prospect of a lunchtime outing, i prepared for an early lunch (90 minutes later) camera in hand... only to be greeted with grey skies and chilling wind. And then, later this afternoon... the weather broke and managed to produce the beautiful sunset below. enjoi, and as always, thanks for reading. peace. Posted by Picasa

a couple of tug's

resting their weary bones beside the boat. Speaking of tugs, i just hafta say, i have developed a newfound respect for these machines and the people who staff them. Watching their heavywieght selves delicatly waltze among the giants has been at times, a bit awe inspiring... Danaher, maybe you really should look into ecoming a tug boat captian. Posted by Picasa
