Nice set Steve Grandes Jorasses is my fave

If you could pull some more detail out of the top in DSC 2876 I am sure the clouds at the top would looks better.

Very nice framing/composition on the fourth one. Like it.

The last three and I have to say the last is by far the most impressive. It needs to be presented very large to make the real impact for those who haven't seen it in person.

Nothing beats it in person but the full size on my big screen is a much better sight than little web res

Nice set! I think these, especially the last two would look brilliant with some more contrast bringing out. I would drop the blacks to bring out the details and try and raise the shadows of the 3rd foreground a bit.

I think I seriously need to plan a tour of the Alps!

I love the third one of Mont Blanc, great light.

I’ve got some others from that series I will post later. The cloud moved quickly and the light was fleeting. Not my normal conditions to shoot in but such a fun evening.

I want to retake the last on a less hazy day with a bit more clouds about. I’ll be back next year.

I like the shot of Mt B. Mainly because it reminds me of sheltering being the little crag in the sunlight trying to put more layers on. I like the cloud over the summit, it's a shame there isn't a bit more space above it.
