blue silence

I took this on a photo-tour with u.linder on the top of the Allalin (Saas Fee, Switzerland, 3.500m / 11.483ft). As we reached this rock the sun just disappeared behind the 4.027m high Allalinhorn behind us. This was the first and last picture I took with a little light left on the rock. We waited a while to see if the sun would wander around the Allalinhorn but it went down behind it. Bad luck! Anyhoo, I like the picture. It reminds me of that wonderful silence up there (except Uli’s cough. LOL).

Btw, behind the rock it goes down a few hundred meters. Must be thrilling to cut a nice ”first track” into that hillside on a snowboard … (w/o triggering an avalanche, of course).
