When I left El Chalten, the skies were dark and clear. After an hour and half hike, it was still dark, but the skies had clouded over and it poured rain. I thought sunrise was going to be a complete shutout.

As anyone who has been to Patagonia knows, the weather can change QUICK. Over about 10 minutes as the sun rose, clouds streaked across the sky and Mt Fitz Roy emerged.

Beauty of Patagonia has no limits. I was “hunting” for some lenticular clouds (I’ve never seen them before live) and the place didn’t disappoint me. Here is the Fitz Roy mountain in El Chaltén, Patagonia, Argentina. The clouds moved over the mountains producing an unreal scene. Colors, timing, and high winds that move these clouds so quickly, as well as stretched them, were all in place. The scene was simply stunning. But, I don’t care about the mountains on this shot as much as clouds so I decided to use the Topaz Clouds Sharpening plugin for PS and make them pop quite a bit, as you can see, and mask out everything else. It is them that make this shot Crazy. Enjoy it against the black background. The image is also big, so click on the arrows icon to stretch it over the entire screen.
