Milky Way Above an Ocean of Clouds - a photo on Flickriver

It has been a long time since I’ve posted a photo, so I'll try to get it done today!
My passion for nature and alpine photography is unchanged, but in the last year many things have happened: I got married, I moved house and, from a social point of view, I’ve opened a YouTube channel dedicated to my organ performances, as I am first and foremost a musician, a concert organist.
YouTube channel “Organo Santuario della Consolata”
Therefore, since the time I dedicate to social media is not much, I have had to reduce my activity on other platforms. Anyhow, I hope to catch up soon my presence here, as I was doing in the past!

This is a beautiful night view from the 3,000 meters of Col d'Ambin, in the Alps of the upper Susa valley (Italy/France).
What can I say, I guess that those who are familiar with high mountains know well that finding oneself above the clouds can be a very frequent experience, while deciding to stay in place to be able to admire unimaginable natural spectacles like this one can be a little rarer :-) or, for all intents and purposes, a “photographer activity!” ;-)
Whatever the reason that drives us to stay in the high mountains at night, what I would like to point out is that these are always unique moments, priceless, to never forget how infinitely small and transient we are, yet we participate in an immensely large reality, which transcends our human understanding.
