Deep silence
A small cloud play with the iced summit of the Weisshorn, 4.505m (14,780ft), one of the giants of the Alps.
Dark clouds were gathering at the horizon, but the weather forecast was right: only high clouds with no rain or snow.
Anyhow, a cold, iced wind was blowing from the North. It is a common weather condition above the area of Simplon pass, where the summit of Galehorn, the point from where I took this shot, is located.
I love to be up there alone, silence can be a great companion.
Today, after two days of rain, and even the coming of winter time, with shorter days, I look at this shot with a certain melanchony.
At least, the bad weather gave me time to edit some of the many shots I took during the last summer and the beginning of this autumn.
Scure nuvoli, ma innoque, si addensano attorno alla cima del Weisshorn, una delle cime più alte delle Alpi.
Foto ripresa dalla cima del Galehorn, sopra il passo del Sempione, mentre un vento glaciale soffiava da Nord.
