The beautiful colors of spring in the Andean region.
I usually take part in the contest organised by anri because I find them very useful for promoting the #Serey platform, on the one hand, and because they cover different issues, all of them interesting, on the other.
I had the opportunity to participate and be selected in the competition dedicated to World Cuisines, one of the best competitions in which I have participated, both for the quality of the works presented and for the quantity of them.
Apart from that, anri's competitions have a particularity: it is a theme (before it was the World Cuisine and today it is the Seasons of the Year) which is then divided into several publications - usually four - which gives them continuity.
This not only gives them a continuity in time that generally lasts a couple of months or more, but also gives them a solid and attractive structure that is very difficult to resist.
Having finished this first introductory part, I will now share with the whole #Serey community this post dedicated to spring in the Andean region of South America.
The rosehip is one of the first plants to bloom at the beginning of spring in the Andean region.
Diverse species of wild orchids give a special color to the region called the Andean region that includes the provinces of Rio Negro and Chubut in the strip located on both sides of the 42nd parallel.
At any time of the year. In spring and autumn they are particularly beautiful.
Lake Epuyén towards the end of autumn, with its characteristic leaden sky and its crystalline and cold waters that come from the thawing of the Andes Mountains.
In autumn the cold begins to show with the fall of the leaves of the deciduous trees and in a real collage in the evergreen trees.

To the traditional green color (in all its shades) of the pines, larches, myrtles and all the other mountain species we must add the other plants that have been gradually incorporated into the region.
A typical Patagonian town with the characteristic gravel roads, the brown color of the leaves of the plants and in the background the first snow on the high peaks of the mountains.
A centennial myrtle plant in Lago Puelo National Park in early spring.
In the first case, the first buds and flowers are already beginning to appear.
The cherry trees of the Andean region are the first to display their white to pinkish flowers.
And in the second case the first snows are beginning to be seen in the high peaks.

The city of El Bolsón in the Andean region on the border with the province of Chubut, is one of the first localities, due to its condition of valley with a very special climate, to enjoy the benefits of spring.
The cherry tree is the emblematic plant of the Andean region and adorns most of the sidewalks in all the mountain towns and cities.
Spring, say the locals, is one of the best seasons because the trees begin to bloom immediately when in other places the buds are not even budding yet.
The same with the fruits.
The photos illustrating this post were taken in early spring.
The photos have been taken with my LG K40 cell phone with the following features:
- 13 MP (rear) and 5 MP (front) camera with phase detection autofocus (PDAF).
- 4x digital zoom
- Support for PNG format images.
And they have not been modified with any image editing software.
