This photo was taken on Mt Aconcagua in Argentina. This is Camp Colera (nice name) @ 5870 meters above sea level / 19258 feet.
This was on day 2 of a 4 day storm which pinned us in our tents, 1 more day and we would have given up our summit attempt.
Here you can see sunset and an amazing break in the cloud to reveal this awesome view. I am not joking when I say it brought me to tears!!!!! 10 minutes later the storm was back in full force and we were back to going mentally crazy with cabin fever.

That is a gorgeous site!
Thanks Ozzie, yea, I'm not a photographer, this was just a fluke that it turned out so well :-)
Although saying that, when I am in places like this I think every picture that is taken turns out amazing.
Wow!!
I still prefer your pics of Ireland ;-)
Oh, that's kind! I love that one, though!
Looks very calm and peaceful - even though that might be deceptive going from the text... that very much reminded me of a movie, I've watched recently (Everest, it's about the 1996 tragedy).
Yea, I've seen the film a few times and read the book a few times ;-)
The storm in the movie was similar to what we went through on Aconcagua. Was impossible to leave the tents except when what I think was the eye passed over and I got this pic. I've never before experience weather like that, it was scary.
Oh wow, sounds scary indeed. Those pictures really stuck with me!
Luckily you made it up and down safely!
