DESCRIPCIÓN
Also available in Spanish with the title: Alta Colombia Esplendor de la Montaña
Historically, the high mountains around the world have been considered as sacred places, as magical environments, as abodes of the gods.
This book represents an ascent to the imposing peaks, snow-capped peaks, mountain ranges and glaciers of Colombia, climbed in three years of persistent expeditions by the photographer and naturalist Cristóbal von Rothkirch, whose lens serenely submerges in the beauty and vitality of the Andes, in search of of that high Colombia of open spaces and deep skies.Starting from the last human settlements on its slopes, the ascent takes us into the overwhelming beauty of the cloud forests and the solitary visions of the moors and super moors, until accessing the highest altitudes of the country through the snow path. : the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy, the snow-capped mountains of Ruiz,Santa Isabel, Tolima and Huila and the volcanoes of the south.
This volume is complementary in an extraordinary way with the texts of the experts Juan Pablo Ruiz and Carlos Mauricio Vega.
