Bon^jour,

beau dimanche.

Un petit image de Haut de Cry et de la basilique de Valère, basilique qui fait la fièreté de la ville de Sion , sur une des deux collines surplombant la ville.

Dans cette basilique il y a le plus viel orgue jouable au monde.

Belle journée

Nicou

Ciao Nicou, bel castello sovrastato da una fantastica montagna, altra splendida composizione invernale, bravo, buona Domenica, ciao Silvio

Wonderful morning (I guess...) colors, I love the "pink" snow here! Also great sharpness.

salut Nicolas

Your high altitude shots of the winter scenery are worth revisit to your gallery to follow your travel steps up the mountains of Switzerland and this one has the added advantage of the castle-like buildings on top of a smaller hill to a larger looming mountainous background covered with snow. Good work.

Bonjour Nicolas,

You have captured a wonderful shot demonstrating the effects of light and shade on the mountains. The cracks and crevices, humps and hollows, have all been revealed in this painting of blues and greys.
The f/g building and the l/h cloud, help to convey the perspective.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Nicolas
Le monastere a l'air si petit contre cette gigantesque montagne. Le reflet du soleil donne un effect spectaculaire.
C'est fantastique.

Hello Nicolas,
Powerful image, very sharp, with great colours, and a sensational sense of scale with the house transmiting all the majesty of the mountain. Wonderful place and a wonderful photo.
Greetings, mb

Bonjour Nicou,

Que c'est joli, un paysage tout blanc vêtu et cette petite basilique sur son rocher essayant de faire la Grande face à ce bloc de neige, c'est riche, riche de lumière, de contraste et de couleurs!!!
Merci Nicou, ce partage est fabuleux!!!

Hi Nicolas:

Magnificent shot. Very nice POV and beautiful colors. The castle looks so small against that majestic mountain. TFS.

A spectacular and classic photo from Swtitzerald! Just a beautiful and majestic setting! A place you would envision when someone says Switzerland in the winter.

Bonjour Nicolas,
Quelle splendeur, cette montagne sous cette lumière! La basilique déjà imposante en elle-même paraît toute petite à côté d'elle! Excellent rendu des ombres et des textures.

Tu me pardonneras, mais je ne peux m'empêcher d'y voir une belle grosse meringue toute craquante au sortir du four! :)
Magnifique! Annie
