Hi everyone! I'd thought I'd post a few pics of where I call home, Southern Chile. You can view Part 1 of this series HERE
This is a sunset over Lago Ranco. Every night (that it isn't raining, it is the Valdivian rain forest) is an amazing spectacle. Every night is a different show. More sunset photos are coming in later posts. I have many.
Today, I just wanted to post the five photos above to wet your appetite. Southern Chile is an amazing place to live. No, it is not perfect, but it is better than so many other places. My crazy parents moved our whole family here 3 years ago and it's been an amazing adventure. I have 4 sisters and two brothers. My oldest sister is married and they have one son. We are all under one roof. And, my grandmother lives with us a well. We have a full house, to say the least. In the olden days, it was common for multiple generations to live together. I like it. There is so much diversity and seldom a dull moment.
One of the many things we do is raise Great Pyrenees dogs. These dogs are awesome with children and are foremost great livestock guardian dogs.
This is my fourth week on #steemit. I am still in the trial and error stage, no doubt. I'm getting pretty good at the error part. Of course, you can view my blog @gringalicious where you can see what I think are some amazing posts. I focus mainly on food and food photography, but I will be adding diverse posts from time to time, such as this one.
Any questions or suggestions, PLEASE comment. Have a great evening.
Your photos are amazing. I really like the view. You are truly blessed.
thank you for the compliment. Yes, I agree, we have a absolutely crazy view. I didn't want to brag too much in the post, but I guess I can in the comments. Yeah, it's amazing.
You are welcome, @gringalicious.
Great place to live :)
You're absolutely correct.
Wow, the first one is amazing!
Thank you very much. I think that one was taken with a Cannon Powershot. I have many more, they'll be coming in future posts
Nice photos!
Thank you. I have many more coming. Good luck with your future endeavors on steemit.
Thanks, you too!
I absolutely love Great Pyrenees. Hands down one of my favorite breeds! My daughter goes crazy for them, too -she got to meet one up close and personal and it was love at first sight.
They are great dogs. One thing we discovered that we won't do again: For a period of time we only had two males, brothers. Two males without a female around was not a good mix. They were constantly inspiring one another to be mischievous. We have females now and all is much better
These photos are great, that sunset is stunning
Thank you @meesterboom!
How close or far is this place from Santiago?
About 1,000 KM. All highway.
I love the 4th picture on this one because I love pictures of sunsets. You nailed the 4th picture because the horizon is even and not tilted! Great work way to go!
You should join! I love the pictures you took on the ERRY COCONUT BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE BOWLS article - they're magazine quality - don't worry I'm not going to use it not a mag writer.
Keep writing and have a great Monday!@gringalicious, I upvoted because I think you take amazing pictures! I think you photograph very well and I feel sorry, I saw your article ERRY COCONUT BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE BOWLS pretty late. Great effort you took on the photography. There's actually a foodchallenge I wonder if you've seen it @givemeyoursteem's page which we are all hoping would continue.
Thank you for the very thoughtful compliments
Great views! That sunset pic is amazing.
Need to go back to your brownie post ;)
