Directions

Just some summer walking directions in the winter snow... yourcomments and criticism are warmly welcome.

p.s. You might want to see this LARGERto remove some compression artifacts.

A beautiful image my friend.

Love it. Compositionally perfect, visually stunning (that texture!), and witty -- I find the very idea of a "road sign" up there deeply humorous.

Very odd. Makes me wonder how you got close without drowning in the stuff. Good comp. Bring us more.

Ferdinando, thanks.

Chris, much of Switzerland mountains are criss-crossed by summer walking paths. Sometimes at decent intervals, sometimes with an appalling frequency, you get some information, like here. Still poles are much better than splashes of paint. These poles are usually a good couple of meters, or more. In winter, heavily snowed upon, they become quite incongrous, as the times they indicate.

Erwin...I was on snowshoes!

Very good composition,light and color contrast.Simple & beautiful image.

Thanks, A.K.. I wanted indeed to keep it as simple as possible.
