Puma - Puma concolor, Cile 2017. Mi spiace annoiarvi con una descrizione lunga della foto, ma credo che ogni foto meriti un approfondimento. Questa è una foto alla quale sono particolarmente legato, per tanti motivi. Un'esperienza condivisa con il collega ed amico Andrea Pozzi. Un'avventura epica che ci ha lasciato tante soddisfazioni fotografiche ma non meno, emozionali. Dopo aver terminato il nostro annuale phototour in Patagonia, decidiamo di trattenerci qualche giorno per provare a fotografare il puma. Quella mattina con il nostro tracker avevamo deciso di battere una zona dove era stata avvistata una mamma con due cuccioloni. Decisi a non farci sfuggire l'occasione ci muoviamo quando ancora fuori è buio pesto. Arriviamo in zona e nemmeno il tempo di capire dove eravamo che ecco attraversarci la strada i 3 puma. Troppo buio, troppo veloci. Nemmeno il tempo di tirare fuori l'obiettivo che se ne erano già andati. Scendiamo assieme al nostro tracker ma sembrano persi. Intanto inizia a piovere abbastanza pesantemente. Ci diamo il cambio e cerchiamo di avvistarli ma ormai sono nascosti chissà dove. Quasi perse le speranze e poi eccola una testolina che spunta dai cespugli. Trovati! La pioggia sembra finita, gira tutto abbastanza bene e ci mettiamo in attesa a circa 70 metri, per non spaventarli. Il cielo si fa grigio, il meteo in Patagonai è abbastanza inclemente e cambia nel giro di pochi secondi. Riprende a piovere, questa volta arrivano secchiate d'acqua con raffiche di vento impressionanti che ci spostano di peso. Ho visto il treppiedi con il 600mm alzarsi e spostarsi di un metro prima di riprenderlo al volo. Ho perso 3 anni di vita...... Attendiamo diverse ore ma niente, non si muovono, non si alzano. Ancora due ore e sarebbe diventato buio. Poi uno dei due cuccioloni si alza, spaventato da chissà quale rumore e decide di andare a infastidire il fratello. Sempre troppo nascosti dai rami. Ancora in attesa sotto la pioggia... Il sole sta per tramontare quando finalmente si muovono per andare a caccia. La mamma apre la strada, i due giovani dietro attenti e curiosi. Qualche fugace scatto al volo, li seguiamo a distanza ma sappiamo che sarà per poco, poi spariranno dietro le colline. Invece si fermano per pochi secondi. La mamma è nuovamente sdraiata, i cuccioli si voltano verso di noi e sono lì, perfetti, come in quadro. Un paio di scatti e poi tolgono il disturbo, il buio sta nuovamente avanzando, li vediamo scomparire in lontananza. Stanchi, esausti per quella giornata così dura e così emozionante ce ne torniamo in auto con il sorriso stampato in faccia. Un giorno che non si dimentica tanto facilmente. Un saluto a tutti. Ale

Great Ale what a beautiful picture. I agree on the need to not be able to insert photos in hd for fear of theft, etc.
Vultures are ready to steal photos even at 1mpx.
Bellino the 600 that was about to fly away :-D :-D
I try maybe to call you Saturday for our things

I've been in the Paine Park many years ago, I walked for days off the trail without crossing any biped. I could not film the puma but I perfectly understand the emotions you experienced.
Congratulations and thank you for sharing this wonderful moment.

“ I'm sorry to bore you with a long description of the photo, but I think every photo deserves a deepening „

Without a story like this it would have been "only" a great picture .... the writing that accompanies it is fantastic !!!
Chapeau

A capture like that (not a puma, but a whole family), a constancy of real fans, overshadow the 5,000 ISO, the crop, the lack of HD or exaggerated detail. This, for me, is the true nature photography. Applause!

Haha, then the pumas exist!
Congratulations for the tenacity and the desire to immortalize them :-)
Beautiful image that enriches my memories of the Paine, when we watched the guanaco graze in the background of the mountains :-)

A beautiful sweaty capture and earned with many difficulties and fears saw what was about to take away the wind ... the subjects are wonderful and their position almost seems to pose cone to want to reward you after all that time you have been waiting for them. Very good and congratulations
