Photographer's Note
When Africa collided with Europe and the alps where formed, new rock glided underneath older rock, thus creating the amazing landscape of the UNESCO world heritage site of Sardona in the Grison mountains in eastern Switzerland. It seems not logical that the older stone is on top of the mountain and the younger stone underneath it. Some 9000 years ago the growing glacier broke the mountain and around 12km^3 of rock glided towards the bottom of the valley and the river Rhine. The result can easily be seen in the WS photo where a clean line marks the older and newer rock that was hidden before the landslide. Barely visible is the Martinsloch, a hole in the mountain trough wich the sun shines on St. Martin's day.

Hello Daniel,
Wow, what a fantastic landscape in the best circumstances. The mix of grass, snow and rock is very appealing and the colours are so bright and well-saturated. Great photo work!

Hello Daniel,
It's nice to see you here now and then. This is a magnificent view of an Alpine scenery and also very attractive colours. I would say that nature has shaped itself in a very artistic way. We also get a crash course of geology, so at least I learned something about the world from this photo.
Best wishes,
Gert

The place is an awesome high terrain landscape, Daniel, and beautiful with summer colors over the slopes and rocks.
The organization you mentioned has no-good reputation here in Israel, after its latest decisions, influenced by politics.

Hi Daniel
A great place for a few shots, it's colourful and amazing nature wonder and geological land formation - thanks to your info notes with a nice cut that enhances its beauty, clarity and depth. The full texture is especially intriguing well detailed and I feel that the yellow patch helps to hook the eye a great deal. A lesson in geography perhaps, pleasantly taken and exposed to pleasing clarity despite the strong light. Excellent well worth an effort, and your additional pic is of great help, Congrats.
Best wishes
