An winter evening

An evening view towards South, towards Mont Rogneux (3084m) and Mont Brulé (3676m).

Powdery landscape

A freshly snow landscape, only marked by a nightly wild hare (and some backcountry skiers on the right) serve as the foreground of a view of the Pennine Alps, with Catogne peak in prominence.

Val de Bagnes

Between Mont Fort and Mont Gelé to the North and the multiple peaks of the massif of the Grand Combin to the South, this deep valley is now fully plunged in Winter mode.

Winter dressing

Leaving the landscape almost monochromatic, the higher altitude forests are now full dressed in snow.

And so, they ski

A fresh and fluffy mountain coating, where before stood grassland, invites those that like the more powdery tree lines, away from the official slopes.

Last of Autumn

The landscape tells the tale of how Autumn is nearly defeated by the heaviness of Winter.

Winter meets Autumn

With the deciduous trees still dressed in their Autumn colours, a heavy snowfall marks the beginning of Winter.

Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS)

The goal of my hike today, a nicely tailed space visitor straight from the Oort cloud. Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) highlights the sky at dusk, with the Milky Way as its background. Below, and (luckily for astrophotography) well hidden by clouds, the human-made lights of the local villages surrounding Lac de Joux and Lac Brenet compose and pair well with the remaining sunlight.

French Alps

From afar, the French Alps emerge from the sea of clouds that overshadow Lac Léman. Well above it, high-altitude cloud formations reflect what remains from the sunlight this day.
