Sebastian del Val, 39 years old and landscape and nature photographer based in Salta, Argentina.
“Nothing is better than the life of a landscape photographer. When I walk on nature trails before dawn, for a brief moment, I can feel I am the only person in this world and enjoy the tranquillity, far away from the daily routine. Again and again nature surprises me with its beauty. It provides me moments of stillness – pure sensation of peace and an inexplicable spiritual connection – elements that play an important role in everyone’s well-being. Landscape and nature photography has become my way of living.
I enjoy sharing my love and profound knowledge of this area and my passion for photography with amateur or professional photographers who not only pursue technical perfection in an image, but also feel the same respect for nature and the practice of photography. I invite you to come with me to discover the beauty of Salta and La Puna Argentina through Photographic Expeditions.”
