Matterhorn touched by the first rays of the sun

[ Sizes: Orig | Small | Thumb ]

Matterhorn touched by the first rays of the sun. As I took this photo I was amazed at thinking about the climbers up there passing the border from the dark to the warm sunlight. Compare this image (later this day) and this one (one year later - more snow covered and less humidity).
