Looking towards Rano Raraku

Aligned

The center piece

Fading

The majestic 15

With a fallen comrade

On the lip

Tongariki

Hiding in plain sight

The path to Rano Raraku

Waiting for the sun to set

On the side

Looking up

I've fallen, and I can't get up

Give me your best pouty face

Stuck in the middle with you

Moai

With Tongariki in the distance

Looking south

The most photogenic moai

Off the beaten path

Just lounging

A field of moai

It doesn’t get much more remote, nor much more spectacular, than Easter Island, or, Rapa Nui. 3500 kilometres from the Chilean mainland, it’s one of the most remotest places on earth.
In June 2014, I had the opportunity to visit, spending several days to cycle around the island. A truly amazing experience and one of the most spectacular in South America, even though Rapa Nui is perhaps more Pacific than Latin American.
Here, find my Easter Island photos in one place, all available to purchase as prints.
