Mont Blanc from the "Col de Balme", a photo from Rhone Alpes, South

Photographer's Note

I've always wanted to go to Chamonix-Mont Blanc, and see those magnificent mountains of the Alps. When I had the opportunity this summer, I search the internet for a walk to appreciate the Chamonix valley and Mont-Blanc massif. I found that from Le Tour you can climb to the Col de Balme(2186m) with lovely views. Up is a refuge restaurant service that allows a break from the demanding climb while the stage is contemplated ...

Siempre he querido ir a Chamonix-Mont Blanc, y ver esas magníficas montañas de los Alpes. Cuando este verano tuve la oportunidad busque en internet una caminata para poder apreciar el valle de Chamonix y el macizo del Mont-Blanc. Encontré que desde Le Tour se puede subir hasta el Col de Balme(2186m) con unas preciosas vistas. Arriba hay un refugio con servicio de restaurante que permite tomarse un descanso de la exigente subida mientras se contempla el escenario...

Hi Juan,
A very impressive landscape view with a very attractive blue background against the well composed foreground scene. The path along the green slope is well positioned and all the red flowers create interest.
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hola Juan,

A spectacular view of the Alps with good sharpness and density levels. I like the splash of colour added by the fg wildflowers. The path adds lead in lines and perspective. The jagged snow capped peaks including Mont Blanc make a fine backdrop. Tfs!

Hi Juan,

Superbe cliché qui rend hommage aux montagnes. J'aime le contraste entre les couleurs froides des sommets et chaudes du premier plan.
merci,

Stéphane
