Matterhorn under fire... - a photo on Flickriver

            Leaving civilisation behind always fills me with great peace and tranquillity. The beauty of the mountains with their mysterious aura awakens my soul to new life. 

After the descent from Sunnegga (see picture "Moonrise over the Adlerhorn") I experienced this impressive evening atmosphere. I have been to Zermatt many times before, as it is an area I like very much, but I had never seen such fiery clouds over the Matterhorn before. It was a magnificent spectacle how the clouds spread like fire over the summit - an experience of a very special kind...

Ich war schon oft in Zermatt, da es eine Gegend ist, die ich sehr mag, aber so feurige Wolken über dem Matterhorn hatte ich noch nie gesehen.
