Burning Skies

If you watched the time lapse movie I published yesterdy, then you probably recognize this image.

 

I took it in a remote place above Grindelwald in the Siwss Alps. Milky Way is rising behind Mt. Wetterhorn. You can check the clouds dissolving around this very prominent peak in my time lapse flic.kr/p/X6w6oF and you will know that iti very aptly named "Weather-Peak".

 

On the right is Mt. Eiger with its famous 1,800m (5,900 ft) high north face. The light in middle of the north face is the station "Eigerwand" ("Eiger-Wall") of the Jungfrau Railway. Also visible is the light of the "Mittellegi Hut" on the eastern ridge of Eiger.

 

Above all are the colorful stars are shining in their eternal beauty...
