From l'Aguille du Midi, near Mt. Blanc

This is a 360 degree view from the top of "L'Aguille du Midi" a peak right next to Mont Blanc, the highest peak in western Europe. Mt. Blanc is under the sun. There is a gondola up here -- the highest vertical ascent in the world. This is an "impossible" shot done by combining shots around the edge of the top observation platform -- you can't see this view from any publicly accessible spot.

Mount Blanc

This is a close up detail on the mountains near Mt. Blanc. I shot a few of these and was distressed to see after the fact that I had goofed them up in really stupid ways. An effect of being up at 3800 metres of altitude!
