The Ogre Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

An early morning view of the north face of the Eiger, with the moon looking on. Taken from the town of Grindelwald, which sits at the base of the Bernese Alps and gets a fine view of the Eiger and the Wetterhorn. The name Eiger translates as Ogre in English, a fitting name for the most notorious mountain in the Alps.

I adjusted the levels in Photoshop to get the right balance of light and dark.
