0002

The city of Huaraz, Ancash, Perú.

After spending most of the afternoon and evening shooting photos of the high peaks of the
cordillera, I thought that maybe I should point the lens down, for a change, toward the city
below. Situated at an elevation of 3080m, and with a population of slightly over 100,000, Huaraz
is the capital of the Department of Ancash, and is the center for hikes and larger expeditions
into the Cordillera Blanca.

This email is going to Kathryn who posted a comment about Bishop Luigi Zanzottera of Huaraz. Patrick if you have contact email for her please put us together. I thought she might be interested to see a photo of a silver medal I acquired from his estate. thanks

Dear Patrick,

Your images are absolutely breathtaking. Have you taken other images of Huaraz? I am interested particularly in a church where a Bishop Luigi Zanzottera served for fifty years. Are any of your images for sale? I just ran across your website in my search for "Huaraz" and have been knocked over by the beauty of your work. Kind regards, Kathryn (from New York City---I have never been to Peru!)
