Description This is arguably my favorite shot of the Swiss Alps. You can see the road off to the left that I was driving on. Again, as usual I just pulled over walked to the edge of a cliff and took a picture. I can't believe there aren't more pictures like this plastered all over DA. This one I had to contrast the sky a bit, the clouds were WAY too bright. They still are, but alas this is what I deal with not having an ND Gradient filter... or a digital SLR for that matter. I guess that just means I have to go back to Switzerland some day. Soon.

Wow, thats amazing. I love how you can see the clouds coming down and touching the mountain. I think I might be too scared to be so high up though. You're much braver than I

Perfect composition and I love the clouds. Those roads down there actually make this an even better shot as they lead the eye.... which is surprising cause normally they tend to distract from the nature. Overall, a beautiful landscape.
