ALPINE PHOTOGRAPHY

 

Grand Combin from the Sentier de Chamois 

A chance to look through my proper camera images from two recent trips to The Alps. 

I rarely get the time and opportunities to photograph the breathtaking scenery and wildlife whilst guiding groups on treks. It's usually just quick mobile phone snaps.

Here are some images from two back to back guiding trips on the Walkers Haute Route. Taken mid July to early August.
