At the top of Bishorn

Looking from the top of Bishorn; the mountain guide leading 5 people arrives at the top plateau, meanwhile others are still on the way or prepare to descend. Shitty weather in the valleys apparently.

A great capture!

This truly captures a great day in the mountains and makes me wish I was right up there!

The blanket of clouds makes the Mischabel ridge in the background look like an island in the sky. The contrast between the tiny folks on the trail and the climber just arriving at the top gives great depth to the scene. Stunning indeed!

Re: A great capture!

thanks a lot, that was exactly the goal, yet people keep telling me that you should have crop the orange guide out of the picture :D

Re: A great capture!

Just ignore those people, at least when it comes to cropping. While that sometimes helps to improve a picture, it would be bad here. That figure really makes the whole composition come together!

Had to do a second take ...

It resembles the North Cascades of western Washington in the states.

The weather is just as cold and wet !
