My today's #footpathFriday is one from the archives. I was really bad prepared that day, but luckily everything turned out well -- and I got this fantastic, dramatic shot!
more about that day:

A dramatic and breathtaking mountain landscape unfolds in this image, capturing the raw beauty and grandeur of nature.
