Cactus, Sunsets, and Christmas

Unread post by the_hefay »

Spent the evening taking photos and this is what I came up with.

We went to Yarabamba which is a little town outside of Arequipa. Here we found a cactus blooming up on a terrace but it was right as the sun disappeared for the night and I didn't have much time to get a better vantage point.

The sunset was gorgeous and we climbed a little hill to get some shots. It went through all the colors and lasted for quite awhile.
