Such a glorious feeling shooting from 3130m altitude...
Quel sentiment de plénitude que de shooter depuis 3130m d'altitude...
The Lauterbrunnen valley is one of the deepest in the Alps, comparing the height difference of the adjacent mountains and the valley floor. In some places the cliff walls are 1000 m high. Streams flowing down the mountains, at the edge of the rocky valley walls, form high waterfalls. The most famous of these are the Staubbach Falls (visible on the right) and the Trummelbach Falls. The 297 m high Staubbach Falls is the tallest free-fall waterfall in Switzerland.

Dolina Lauterbrunnen jest jedną z najgłębszych w Alpach, porównując różnicę wysokości przyległych gór i dno doliny. W niektórych miejscach ściany klifu mają wysokość sięgającą 1000 m. Strumienie spływające z gór, na skraju skalistych ścian doliny, tworzą wysokie wodospady. Najbardziej znanym z nich jest wodospad Staubbach (widoczny po prawej) oraz wodospad Trummelbach . Wodospad Staubbach o wysokości 297 m jest najwyższym wodospadem swobodnie spadającym w Szwajcarii.
I know it looks like daylight, but these photos were taken in the middle of the night a couple of days after the full moon. The snow cover reflects so much light, it almost seems like day. From the Gornergrat summit above Zermatt, Switzerland. The shots with the Matterhorn were taken from the hotel terrace, the other 2 were taken from the hotel room window.
Looking east as first light dawns over the Swiss Alps. Taken from the Forbes Arête on the Aiguille du Chardonnet, France.

The dolomites are one amazing place to go.

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Briançon és una ciutat dels Alps francesos amb molta historia militar, ja des d'època antiga però sobretot d'època moderna.
Es troba en una posició estratègica clau als peus del coll de Montgenevre, un dels més importants dels Alps. De fet, sembla probable que fos per aquí que Anibal Barca creués els Alps des de la Galia en la seva ruta per a sorpendre els Romans per la esquena (P. Connolly: Greece and Rome at War, 1981). També hi passaren amb els seus legionaris tant Pompeu el Gran com Juli Cesar. Després fou la romana Brigantium, d'on li ve el nom.
Ja en època moderna fou fortificada una i una altra vegada pels francesos (com Vauban), tant la propia vila com tots els cims del seu entorn, doncs no n'hi ha cap sense la seva fortficació d'artilleria. Les darreres modernitzacions estaven vinculades a la Linea Maginot dels Alps.

================================
Briançon is a city in the French Alps with a lot of military history, already from ancient times but especially from modern times.
It is in a key strategic position at the foot of the Col de Montgenevre, one of the most important in the Alps. In fact, it seems likely that it was here that Hannibal Barca crossed the Alps from Gaul on his route to surprise the Romans in the back (P. Connolly: Greece and Rome at War, 1981). Both Pompey the Great and Julius Caesar passed there with their legionaries. Then there was the Roman Brigantium, from where it gets its name.
Already in modern times it was fortified again and again by the French (like Vauban), both the town itself and all the peaks around it, because there is none without its artillery fortification. The latest modernizations were linked to the Linea Maginot dels Alps.
