Alpenglühen in the Ammergau Alps
(Hochplatte, Branderschrofen, February 2024)
#WildWednesday #LandscapePhotography #Alps

A long snowy mountain ridge (Hochplatte) and nearby peaks in the Ammergau Alps illuminated by the setting sun, glowing bright red/orange. The summit cross on the peak on the right (Branderschrofen) is glistening brightly. It's a freezing winter day and the steep lower slopes (partially forested) in the foreground are already in the shade (deep blueish light), only some cliffs are still reflecting the sun. Uniform gray clear sky.

The Alps set to lose a record number of glaciers in the next decade, study warns #Alps

The Alps set to lose a record number of glaciers in the next decade, study warns
Glaciers are melting worldwide. In some regions, they could even disappear completely. Looking at the number of glaciers disappearing, the Alps could reach their peak loss rate as early as 2033 to 2041. Depending on how sharply the planet warms, this period may mark a time when more glaciers vanish than ever before. Worldwide, the peak glacier loss rate will occur about ten years later and could rise from 2,000 to 4,000 glaciers lost each year.

The last light of 2025....
(...is giving me big hopes for 2026, against all odds!)

The silhouette of a group of spruce trees against an intensely golden sky above the northern Alps in the background. The sun itself is partially visible through the trees, light shafts through the low haze.

Wide-format photo of a high alpine landscape dusted in a thin layer of snow, amplifying the rich textures and last remaining bits of color. A large and deep erosion chute is curving up steeply towards the ridge line and large rock peaks higher up. Large vertical rock faces on the right hand side. Gray sky completely filled with snow clouds.

In The Garden Of Eden.
(From one of my favorite hikes last year, October 2025... a place of absolute solitude, harmony, peace and positive vibes, a feast for the eyes)

The upper part of a high alpine glacial valley in the most beautiful autumn colors with golden yellow grasses, small bushes with orange leaves, red patches of heather and blueberries, and small swiss pines dotted here and there. A small waterfall emerges between some of the rock cliffs. The snow capped peaks of large mountain in the hazy background. Clear blue sky with a single small white cloud
