Ascending the Hidden Lake

With my family visiting Ushuaia (Land of Fire) in Argentina, I was on a tour with them to the viewpoint of "The Hidden Lake" when I instantly fell in love with it. The environment's vibration engulfed me, and I felt an intense connection. What a marvelous place! The trees, the reflection of the sky on the water, and the air created a perfect moment that resonated with my emotions.

The lake is of glacial origin, surrounded by snow-covered mountains and forests. It is a true beauty!

During the tour, while listening to stories about the past, I learned that the conquering navigators, such as Hernando Magallanes, observed distant campfires and their reflections in the water, which led to the naming of this place as "Tierra de Fuego" (Land of Fire). This inspired me to create a painting that reflects the lake's brilliance. This mythical place holds countless colorful stories from the past.

Now, let me present my painting (poem) that describes what I felt and aims to convey it:

"The hidden lake rises, the wind gently shakes its surface, murmuring its melodious tune. The sun embraces it with a fiery glow, causing the lake and the earth to tremble. Colors shine brilliantly, filling my heart and my life with boundless joy."
