Switzerland - Belalp: Mountain Drama

    We were asked to submit a portfolio of images for consideration for the cover of a South African photography magazine. The magazine narrowed the choice down to three. This one and two others, here and here .

    The picture that they settled on was my least favourite of the three, but it had the coolest story - check it out here.

      It's so pretty it doesn't look real.

      Nice landscape.. What happens to the sky? As above, it doesn't seem to be real...

      Check out the article, it has more pictures. It was only a small part of the sky that was crazy like this, but I focussed in on it with a long lens, compressing it into a smaller space.

      I love the contrast between the sharp lines of the mountain and the soft textures of the clouds. Really nice!
