I found your pictures very beautiful. I'm a french teacher. My pupils and I are working on Patagonia landscapes. I would like to know if I can use some of your pictures in my classroom in order to show the beauty of Patagonia. My pupils would like to make a film about Patagonia. Thus I would like also to use a couple of this pictures about petrified Forest to make a short film.

Thank you for your answer.
