Meet Lizzy! Lizzy crossed my way back after a short landscape shoot in Potrerillos - a district located in the provinz of Mendoza, Argentina.
Lizzy insisted to pose at her favorite sunspot and myself insisted for a capture in order to share it with you guys. Have fun!
PS: species identification highly requested
