Re: A Bit of Switzerland between Nan and Lis
The Alps are beautiful, especially with the sun I have done a lot of trekking, when my back still allowed it and it is lovely. You manage to feel one with the nature and forget about everything else

That Butterfly is just beautiful! And I'm totally in awe of your Panorama shots
God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Thanks, Alf. More snowy peaks to come!Alf wrote:Oh wow that's beautiful
I just love the mountains with the snow on the peaks
The clouds help make for more interesting photos, though!Lisbeth wrote:The Alps are beautiful, especially with the sun
Thanks. The camera does most of the work on the panoramas (and often struggles with the stitching).Mel wrote:That Butterfly is just beautiful! And I'm totally in awe of your Panorama shots
I forgot to mention that we saw some mountain birds on this walk: Nutcracker, Ring Ouzel and Wheatear; We also saw our first Alpine Marmot of the trip.

Here is one of their burrows. The snowy mountain in the background is the 3600-metre Doldenhorn

Re: A Bit of Switzerland between Nan and Lis
don't speak mountains for me
when I was young (it's a pleonasme ) all my holidays were at "Rossinière" near "Château d'Oex"
I love the Soldanelle and the others and Butterfly
