Salinas Grandes, Argentina

I loved coming to visit Salinas Grandes. I had originally planned to visit the region back in 2020 but obviously it had to be shelved.

I won’t go into it too much today, but suffice to say that I had many moments between 2020 and September 2021 where I thought my travelling days were well and truly over. I also thought my workshop and tour business was over too.

So to be standing at some of the salt pits on Salinas Grandes each morning and evening was something that I tried to drink up as much as I could. I distinctly remember saying to myself - ‘take it all in - you had moments where you thought this may never happen’.

It is a real delight to be walking through the images I just processed over Christmas. A year’s backlog of work, which I will get into when the inspiration and time make me do so. Right now, today it is Jujuy (Argentina province) day. I’m enjoying very much being reacquainted with the place as I always find myself reliving the experience when I do my deep dive image interpretation sessions in my little home studio.
