Photographer’s Note

From my living room window I got this view.
Sun and rain mix sky we got.
One can walk up to these mountains; I was there many times. Up there in summer there are much more cows than hikers and alp farmers, I love to be alone with cows.
The cows are also tourists from flatland; they come over summer time for fresh mountain grass and good air. I think Alpine cows are the only cows with touristic ambitions. During cows are on holiday in the Alps, the alp farmer milk them twice a day and produce Alp cheese. Staying in alp is free for cows. The Alp cheese however will be divided into 2 and shared by alp farmer and cow owner. Nice tradition in Switzerland.
