Photography trip to Argentina — every frame a gift

I came to Argentina specifically for photography and the country delivered material at every turn. Quebrada de Humahuaca at dawn was everything I'd hoped. Bariloche's streets at dusk are an endless source of light and texture. The people, once comfortable with a camera, are extraordinary subjects.

European-flavoured culture gave me some of my favourite images of the year. The only practical note: beef-centric menus challenge vegetarians — plan around it. Otherwise this is a photographer's dream. I've rarely come home with so much usable material from a single trip.
