It was a perfect day to climb what many consider to be the "Queen of the Northern Alps"! 2763m
I'm a little sunburnt today, but damn...it was worth it!

Ahhh...Herr Doe! You zoomed in didn't you? I got lucky and caught the group of trekkers just at the right time. The view from the peak was gorgeous too!
Jul 29th Reply C'mon Pookie...Unfortunately this shot doesn't show the scale of the mountain but it was quite impressive.
Thank you for the fav too! Vielen Dank!

of course I viewed full view but my eyes are very good and I could see them easily
Jul 31st Reply Shadowness StaffWell I love it how it came out and you did well
HillbillyDeluxe
Thanks! It makes hauling a tripod up to 2800 meters worth it!
Jul 31st Reply C'mon Pookie...JurgenDoe

A well known photographer once said, "If carrying the tripod doesn't hurt, the tripod isn't good enough!"....or something like that.
Aug 1st Reply C'mon Pookie...JurgenDoe
He is right .. I carried a tripod through DC for 6 hours

Thank goodness a lot of the companies making the tripods these days are using aluminum and carbon composites!

LOL....like they say, "Whatever doesn't kill us only makes us stronger!"
Aug 28th Reply C'mon Pookie...JurgenDoe
Yep .. thats what I say all the time too

That and "There's no rest for the wicked!" also applies sometimes!
