Relish the beauty of Multi-color mountains in Valley of Dali (Valle De Dali), Stone tree and sunset photos

Sunrise shoot at Hotel Flamingo (that was an easy walk vs a hike early morning 14,000ft), difficult to believe the amount of Green moss on rocks that we saw before the Llamas were ready for a portrait session.
Laguna Masquiri, not for the faint of heart a 1.5-hour hike around the lake with a steep climb at 14,000ft with all the gear and water on your shoulders, followed by Rail track shoot, Quinoa field shoot and a village shoot (Pompous grass)
San Pedro De Quemes town where we stayed overnight

Wow a normal morning with breakfast at 8:00am. Made a visit to Galaxy cave “Cueva De Las Galaxias”, struggled to find the key to be able to open the cave but then ended up in Shailendrra’s final resting place, perhaps!
Drove into “Sala De Uyuni”, Coqueza Town, checked into the hotel to prepare for a Sunset shoot in middle of Sala De Uyuni.
