High in the mountains of Switzerland. One of the peaks is the Eiger but I am unsure which one :) If you look closely you may spot birds in flight. I liked the layers of colours in this one and hope you enjoy it.

It's beautifully done, LynEve! The angles, colors and those birds - WOW! I especially enjoy the natural look of it - not overly sharpened in editing (if at all?) but all in sharp focus ... just Stunning!

The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music... Well, if it was my singing, the birds would have taken off for other parts of the world. This is an extremely well done shot.Great depth, clarity, color and composition. Hope to see it in the VB. Thanks for sharing.

I love shots of the alps and yours is excellent. It looks like you reduced the blue to give better distance detail. I want to go back. I was in the Austrian Alps this spring.

Indeed, I see several birds flying, the mounts are particularly beautiful, there lies still much snow on the tops. In 2003, lay there much less snow than now. Where you have stayed in Switzerland.

I'm glad you referenced this one. Outstanding shot. I hope you had a level spot to stand on--it looks like a rather precarious position. Into my favs.

This is another one that I had already put in my favorites, but didn't comment on. The Alps are beautiful, but I have only seen them from an airplane. Good work on this picture.
