Parinacota (Flamingo in local Aymara language) and Pomerape (Puma in Aymara) Volcanos are situated in the middle of the Chilean Alti-Plano on the border with Bolivia. Together, they form the Nevados de Payachata (Two Brothers in Aymara) which lie to the north of Lake Chungará and to the east of the Cotacotani Lagoons. Lauca Biosphere Reserve. Tiny dots on the water are flamingos, clearly visible on big print. Tough hike at elevation 4500 meters above sea level on very rough boulder field (often simply scrambling over the boulders) with the way back in complete darkness (lucky I had a tracking gps). I think it was a reasonable effort to see and photograph place like that. Special thanks to Mr. Rick Daluna for the hot tee upon return! :) -------------------- Cropped six frames panorama.
