A Front Row Seat
Self-timer shot taken at sunset from the summit of Monte Rocciamelone (3,538 m - 11,608 ft).
One of the aspects that distinguish this well-known mountain in the italian Susa Valley is that its south side stretches down towards the plain, with a difference in height of 3,000 meters... all without encountering any immediate visual obstacle, as often happens in many other peaks of the Alps.
The gaze ranges free from the Parco Dell’Orsiera-Rocciavré (here almost submerged by the sea of clouds) to the distant, omnipresent, pyramid of Monviso.
What can I say... it is definitely an experience, something that goes far beyond saying "I saw something beautiful".
Then, when you find yourself above the clouds, the magic is guaranteed: it is like admiring a silent ocean... with the only very particular difference that water is in a gaseous state instead of liquid :-)
