Ecuador provided four photographic regions: the Galapagos Islands, the cloud forest near Mindo, the Amazon Basin along the Napo River, and the towns along the Andes like Quito, Banos, and the craft villages.
Falkland Islands, Chile, Argentina 2012
The wildlife on Sea Lion, Pebble, and East Falkland Islands rivals that of the Galapagos. The scenic beauty of the national parks of the Chilean and Argentine Patagonia is striking.
