A few shots from my trip to Switzerland.

The Matterhorn reflected in an alpine lake

Sundown above Wengen

Eiger, Monch, Junfrau, and some very happy cows

Hotel Obersteinberg

Glacier spilling off of Monte Rosa

Early morning Matterhorn

Oh, I think I would never leave that place if I ever went there. Beautiful.

That looks like a great place to be, my favorite is the fourth image since it seems to have the strongest composition. Thanks for sharing!

Did you run into any yetis? Those would make the Matterhorn even better.

Edit: VERY beautiful pictures. It looks like a paradise. Especially for someone like me who loves the cold temperatures of Europe.

Fantastic view. I think my first trip out of the US will be to Switzerland!

kurty[B] · 08-13-2007, 12:46 PM

Like always, great shots Stan! I've always wanted to go to Switzerland, but it's just jumped up on my list of place in Europe to visit.

Or maybe a Wampa?

Regardless... that would be an amazing place to visit. Great photography.

Very nice pictures, I like the moon in the last pic and the cows vs the mountain...

Jetée · 08-13-2007, 08:54 PM

It seems like perfect weather at the time you shot the photos.

Lazing-about cows are something seen none too often, and I
thank you for allowing us to share in your experience of such
a beautiful landscape of a remarkable country on your trek there.

cycloptor · 08-14-2007, 12:11 PM

gump · 08-21-2007, 04:35 PM

Those are really great. Looks like such a pieceful place to be.

troit · 08-29-2007, 12:55 PM

It is beautiful over there - my g/f and I were there a couple of years ago for Okoberfest. We starting the trip in Austria, drove south through Croatia and the tip of Switzerland before endimg in Munich. Like yours looks - It was a great trip.
