The Livigno Alps are a mountain range in the Alps of eastern Switzerland and northern Italy, around the Italian village Livigno. They are considered to be part of the Central Eastern Alps.
The Livigno Alps are separated from the Bernina Range in the south-west by the Bernina Pass; from the Albula Alps in the north-west by the Upper Engadin valley; from the Sesvenna Range in the north-east by the Ofen Pass and Val Müstair; from the Ortler Alps in the east by the upper Adda River valley (Valtellina) and the Stelvio Pass.
The Livigno Alps are drained by the rivers Adda River, Inn, and Rom (a tributary of the Adige).

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.

"Alps on Ice"
There has been very little time processing and uploading pictures the latest days due to very hectic activity.
Here's one I shot on March 7th. It was cloudy in most parts of Scandinavia, but managed to find an opening at this epic location stanind on crystal clear ice. The mountains in the background are "Siedde" raging 1km up into the sky, and the other top to the right is "Piggtinden" about the same height. About full moon lightning up the surroundings from the right.
This sequence will definitely be featuring in my new aurora video.

While approaching the Saentis massif during a sunny spring day, I took this picture, which combines the green pastures and a (nearly) spotless blue sky.
I never get tired of these wonderful mountains, they are a wonder and a gift to the senses.

Piz Palü is a mountain in the Bernina Range of the Alps, located between Switzerland and Italy. It is a large glaciated massif composed of three main summits, on a ridge running from west to east. The main (and central) summit is 3,900 metres high.
Only a joke before the war (in Hungary) - later it wasn't so funny...

Near Alpspitz (Bavarian, Germany). I took this picture on a via ferrata tour (Alpspitz Ferrata - Matheisenkar - Höllentalklamm).
A view of the Alps. From one of the many pull over and gawk at the beautiful landscape spots along the Hoeh Alps National Park. I'll check the spelling of the park when I get home.
A must do roadway if you are in the area.
