Wildlife: Honorable Mention 2020 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Torres del Paine National Park, Chile. The Scream of Pain is a testament to how human carelessness can destroy an environment, even a protected one.
The year 2011 began due to the negligence of a tourist, one of the most extensive fires that has affected Chile, 17,600 hectares burned.
As a freelance photographer, I traveled to Chilean Patagonia to make some reports on the fire, I toured the Park, shocked seeing the devastation ... I was surrounded by the silence between ashes and the remains of some dead animals.
"On a hillside I felt the cries of a guanaco (characteristic animal of the area), camera in hand I hurried to discover what was happening and there it was ... A Guanaco screaming at the horizon in search of his family or herd, a cry that never got answer. "
