Guanacos are wild relatives of the llama and are perfectly adapted to the harsh winds and open steppe of Patagonia. They rely on sharp eyesight and speed to survive in one of South America’s most dramatic environments. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/1600th of a second.
There are two star subjects in this photo: the lone guanaco facing the elements and the spectacular, but forbidding, mountains in the background. You can almost feel the chill. Beautiful
