The Weekly Photo Challenge is Lines
“Nature creates curved lines, while humans create straight lines.” ~Hideki Yukawa
In Mendoza, Argentina, we followed straight manmade lines along the road which wove into the Andes Mountains. We headed to the boundary of Chile and Argentina, 4000 meters high.
Erosion carved wiggly grooves and furrows into the rocks.
Scored into the rock, bands of rock like fences reminded me of demarcation lines.
Empty ski lifts and snow fences rolled like a highway over the bare ground.
Ribbons of multicolored calcium deposits flowed over everything in their path.
Silhouettes of clouds traced the contours of the mountains.
Colorful streaks outlined the variety of rock formations.
Hairpin curvy roads and wrinkled rivers mirrored one another.
Passages and lines galore, the Andes were a sight to behold!
Marvellous lines!
Thanks, Sue. They were intriguing.
I particularly love the layers of colors in the second to last photo! They’re all stunning, though.
Alison, I do too. I played around with my photo editor, Prism, and came up with some strangely beautiful almost surreal photos of layers. Thanks for your comment.
Very dramatic lines, indeed!
Thanks! The Andes were very dramatic…and freezing when we got to the top at the border of Chile and Argentina. I was afraid I would be blown off the mountain. Lol
