“I walked over 10 km to reach this location. It was a cloudy day and the mountain was covered with clouds. I wanted to try to create a composition in the woods, which seemed all I had, but suddenly, the clouds started to move away from the mountain and the mountain top started to appear.
I set up quickly and was lucky to capture this magical moment, which didn’t last for too long! What I realised once again from my Patagonia trip is that conditions change rapidly and we have to be ready for it.”
