My feet have touched this ground for the first time in my life during my last stay in the Swiss Alps. I had no idea that this valley would be so beautiful and my heart began to beat faster when the first light of the morning began to reach this area here. I was standing in the middle of a river bed and it was so cold that even the sandy ground was hard like a rock. And when finally the light came I could see the beautiful autumn colours of the trees while my soul was smiling. I will certainly return to this paradise in future, because this valley still offers so many more spots.
It’s every year like a miracle to see how the vegetation changes in autumn. All the colors change from lush greens and rich glowing reds and yellows to subtle brownish autumn colors. And if you are hiking in the mountains like me the morning I made this shot here you can even have the encounter of a small snowfall with temperatures near and below zero degrees. But despite the cold it is so wonderful to experience this spectacle of different colors. I was hiking along this small mountain stream with my dog till to the point when I decided to make a break because the time of sunrise was approaching and the area was really nice. And of course I wanted to freeze this moment at this area and I hope you like this vision here I experienced.
Not far away from our tent there was this small but wonderful waterfall. And I could see this piece of area several times a day during one week and of course in every light condition. And the evening I made this shot here the time was perfect for a picture as a thunderstorm was approaching the area at sunset! From the distance I could already hear the roar of the thunderstorm. And every minute it got louder and louder as the sky darkened slowly. Sunset time was close and I grabbed my backpack just to reach the small waterfall at the right time. And as you can see in my image I had enough time to catch the sunset and the approaching thunderstorm at the same time! How lucky I was that evening ;-) I hope you like my vision here.
