For this week’s challenge, Cheri wants us to share a photo of a landscape: a wide establishing shot of a scene in nature or an urban setting.
This is the Flüela Pass in Switzerland. Summer morning, crystal clear, not a wind. Breathe!

Wow…amazing pic!
Amazing landscape it was – I just held the camera…but thank you!
Those people are so tiny in comparison to the splendour of the mountain towering above them. It gives a sense of the scale.
Yes, you are right. Without the people it would be impossible to know the grandeur of the mountains.
so gorgeous!
Thank you, Imelda!
Oh I’d LOVE to hike here! Wonderful !
😀
Whoosh! 🙂 The movement in this is magnificent! Happy Saturday 🙂
Thank you and a nice weekend to you as well!

So cool! I can’t wait to visit here!!! It looks so grandiose and yet, look at the people fishing!
Hi and thank you for a very cool comment! I agree, the perspective is spectacular when you see those people fishing. Hope you will have a great trip over there!
Now that is a spectacular photo of a landscape plus!
I’m glad you like it, Ruth!
Just. Breath-taking.

What a terrific entry into this week’s challenge, Ann Christine!

What a fabulous image, A-C……stunning light. I have been that way in the past, but never saw it in such clarity.
On our way back, driving the very same road, there were no reflections at all- everything ”lost”. I’m so glad we stopped there on our way in the morning.
Sometimes we get the luck!
Sometimes.
Wow, Ann Marie, this is marvelous. The angle of the mountains (and the reflection) is unusual and having the people in the shot gives perspective to the size. Nicely done!

Thank you, Janet.
Wow, that is amazing how the slope comes down to the river, and how tiny the people are. Very nice.
Thank you – I can understand them fishing there in the quietness – must be lovely.
Lovely! Good that the people are in the picture, for reference.
Yes, they were fishing – shows the grandeur of the pass.
Woah!
Absolutely amazing.
Thanks! 😀
🙂 This is so pretty, Leya!
Have a very HAPPY weekend 🙂
You too!
Spectacular veiw.
Thank you, Lena, it really was. The funny thing about it also, was that we returned the same way back to our hotel. In the evening there was no reflection and the whole scenery went flat…Imagine how lucky we were to have stopped there in the morning light instead!
Sometimes Lady Fortune is traveling side by side. That was really a good choise.
Found your blog through Pike @ ArtKorppii II, she commented on your landscapes and I was curious. What a wonderful eye you have. This landscape reminds me so much of the Sierra Nevada in California. The reflection is marvelous and with the people admiring the view from the waters edge it adds a wonderful scale as well. I’ll look forward to seeing more of your wonderful work. Thank you for sharing.
Carrie, I thank you from my heart for such a lovely comment! I have never been to Nevada, but if it is anything like Switzerland, it is magnificent!
🙂 Nevada is not like Switzerland, sad to say. But, there is a mountain range between Nevada and California, called the Sierra Nevada Range that is spectacular. It is home to the tallest mountain (Mount Whitney) in the lower 48 states. I love it there.
I can understand that. I have seen pictures from it.
Wowwww, meravigliosa!!
Thaaaank youuuu Patrizia! ;-D
