Allô Ike!
Surement qu'il valait mieux monter par câble que monter à pied. ce doit être une belle aventure à vivre. La prise de vue est magnifique avec un bel éclairage. Même au mois de juin, à cette hauteur il ne doit pas faire chaud.
Toutes mes salutations,
Emilius

Hello Ike
Mont Blanc put on its nicest spring getup; a green mantle adorned of a furry white collar, for the official portrait of its first magnitude!
Shalom.

Hello Ike,
an excellent close look to this beautiful and imposing mountain. The composition is superb as it fills the frame with fascinating textures and colours and offers a captivating sense of depth. You've handled light and contrast in a very effective way, the shadows are mesmerising. I also like the sense of scale as perceived through the size of the trees dispersed on the magnificent slopes. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Stunning natural landscape Ike, this is just massive and overpowering but in a very soothing and beautiful manner. The well managed exposure here shows the fine detail and rugged nature of these gorgeous mountains. I'm amazed at how much green there is at this altitude! This is a very nice composition too, looking down the face of the slopes while keeping the peaks prominent throughout. You stated it perfectly, it truly is an impressive and breathtaking view! Great shot!

Cheers,

Jason

Dear Ike

You are right, this mountain is so very beautiful and impressive. I have not seen Mont Blanc from the Italian side, so this is a treat. ( I have seen it from the French and Swiss sides). The colours are lovely and fresh and crisp, no doubt as was the morning you took this on. A refreshing phot that is almost as good as seeing it for myself for real :)

Thanks for sharing, enjoy your Saturday
Lisa

Hi Ike,
What a truly scenic and picturesque mountains photo. Very nice composition. The mountains are amazingly clear and concise and are in splendid contrast with the greenery of the foreground. This looks to be a well thought out arrangement and execution. The compressed focal length shows the majesty of the Alps as they tower over the landscape. Great light management and sharpness make this even better. A real impressive shot, my compliments!

Hello Ike,

You're capturing well this landscape by a good angle and excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see the steep ride with slope of Mt. Mont-Blanc. It's impressive that the foot keeps the greenery and the upper has snow.

Kind regards,
mikio
