 La Boca used to be a locals’ neighborhood and still is the home of the Boca Juniors, once the soccer team of Maradona. Nowday’s we felt that the colorful shanties and streets full of art vendors, buskers and tango dancers twirling for our spare change, is more of a tourist trap… - La Boca, Buenos Aires, Argentina

 To describe the Iguazu Falls without gushing superlatives is a futile exercise. With water cascades as far as the eye can see -- some massive and powerful, some small and dainty -- the Iguazu Falls are a shock to the system. By any measure, Iguazu Falls is a monster. It's made up of a system of 275 waterfalls or cataracts, with the exact number depending on the season. It spans an area 2.7 kilometers wide. The tallest of these waterfalls, called the Devil's Throat, drops by more than 80 meters into a milky abyss that creates a permanent cloud of mist – Iguazu Falls, Misiones, Argentina

 From the Upsala Glacier lookout we began a 14km trekking over Fossil Canyon, an area with a great concentration of unique marine fossils, geological treasures left uncovered after the passage of the oceans long ago - Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina

 The wind is whipping and dark clouds form overhead as the hiking trail suddenly opens to reveal a stunning vista of rugged granite spires soaring high over the Patagonian steppe. These are the Torres del Paine, the proud centerpiece of Chile’s famous national park. Trekking through this Unesco Biosphere Reserve isn’t for the faint of heart – guides say the park sees all four seasons in a single day - Torres del Paine, Chile
 An elephant seal’s year is divided into four cycles: two on land, and two in the ocean. They haul out on land for the breeding season, which lasts from late August through early November, and for the molting season from mid-December through March. During their terrestrial phase, elephant seals fast and spend most of their time sleeping to conserve vital energy reserves. Motionless giants, they resemble wet oval rocks strewn along the beach and blend perfectly into the landscape. Elephant seals are endowed with a generous coat of greasy blurber. The wrapping of fat insulates them from the cold antartic currents, but is also a larder for lean times and provides vital energy for the long fasts during the molting and breeding seasons - Peninsula Valdes, Argentina
 There are two sides to Iguazú Falls: the Argentinian side and the Brazilian side. Whilst the Argentinian side is known for its walks among the cataracts and partial views of them, the Brazilian side is famous for its panoramic vistas and is much more crowded – Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil

I’ve been living in and traveling to the USA for decades… And, the more I travel in the US the more I realize just how much of it there is to see. I still haven't been to Yellowstone or Yosemite or some of the smaller states. I have only seen a tiny slice of Texas, and have a huge amount of the Midwest left to explore. And then there are the places I always want to go back to — places like the Bay Area, Chicago and New England. Even though I have SO MUCH more to see, here are some of the highlights from my US travel.
"Photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place. It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with how you see them."
Elliott E 
About MeI just like to take pictures, I just push the button. I never worked in the darkroom, I never studied photography or journalism; I’m just a passionate photographer. "Success is the ability to go from failure to failure, without a loss of enthusiasm”
Sir Winston Churchill Therefore, I Am A Believer Of "All Critiques Are Valid". Thank You!
