Evening light

View from our offices this evening. Note the snowy peak behind the hills.
This is Cerro Manquehue, reaching 1500 m above sea level
(900 m above Santiago). The snow indicates how cold it is,
just 5-6 degrees when I left home, this must be
one of the coldest days of this year.
Manquehue means "Place of Condors"
in the native tongue.

I captured this scene on my way
to the bus one morning.
The name Andes comes from Quechua,
the language of the Incas, and means
Ribbon of Fire. A suiting name,
considering 10 % of the world´s
active volcanoes are found in Chile.
