22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A view of Matterhorn in the swiss alps
As I hiked up the slopes of the swiss alps in the early morning, the clouds and fog formed a thick blockage of the landscape scenery. The objective was to reach the lake with a view of the Matterhorn mountain. When I arrived the whole mountain was completely invisible due to the dense clouds. I patiently waited and low and behold the mountain slowly reappeared with a unique form of clouds surrounding it. The result of the journey was a beautiful photo of Stellisee lake with a reflection of Matterhorn.
