Not only Reinhold Messner has dubbed the Dolomites as the most beautiful mountains in the world. With its majestic aura they act like the teeth of the crown of the Alps.

Es sind die letzten Tage in denen die Schrofen – die Steilwiesen der Allgäuer Hochalpen – noch anmutig strahlen. Bald hält die weiße Pracht im Gebirge Einzug und läutet die kalte Zeit des Jahres ein. Mit dem traditionellen Almabtrieb wird diese Jahreszeit gefeiert.

The view from Suilven was even more fascinating than the ascent itself. After a spooky, foggy night on the ridges of the mountain we had a short blast of light in the morning. Only seconds. But enough time to keep the memory forever.

It was early in the morning as we climbed down into this otherworldly green world. The water was deep dark and ran quite quickly through the tight canyon. After my many negative experiences with water damages lately it was a mental challenge for me passing some difficult passages. Perhaps a subconscious reason why I increasingly shoot on mountains lately ;-).
Howsoever I guess Felix and I stepped into a real hidden treasure. Which was an epic opportunity for us to take photos here.

Even in summer the mountain range in the Misty Mountains seems bizarre and icy. Framed by black pinnacles that rise skyward, the glassy blue mirror lake is situated like a pearl.
Since my last photo tour into the Alps I fell more and more in love with the world of fantasy stories. This is for sure also due to the bizarre landscapes.
But when I think back, I always had an affinity for the fairytale.
Well, as you see, dream and reality are closer together than often assumed. For me one reason to even delve deeper into this fascinating world.

Lothlórien. A place where fantasy meets dreams. The forested land of golden light.
Without the witness of the Reality in form of contrails I would have believed to actually be there.
