[version française] [versión española]
Since the dawn of time telluric forces and meteorological elements have combined their actions to give birth to some powerful and unique mountainous or glaciar or even rime ensembles, distinguishing themselves in first place by : their unusual scales, the breadths of their extensions, the extraordinary shapes adopted by their constituent substances.
Overall this gallery shows some of the most remarquable productions visible in Patagonia of : endogenous fire (plutonism) and of the Dantesque precipitations of water and snow brought by the vigorous and vehements wet winds of the Pacific on the western or the andean southern Patagonia from time immemorial.
As if the intrinsic beauties of these ensembles weren't sufficient, some periodical factors such as early or late coloured lights, or some ephemeral meteorological phenomenons, often enhance them and even make the sceneries occasionally sublime.
