Description
A wide summer panorama of Riffelsee in the Riffelsee Nature Reserve above Zermatt, Switzerland. The calm mountain lake reflects rugged rock formations and distant snow-covered peaks, while a narrow shoreline path crosses the sparse alpine terrain.
Story
Captured in August, this wide horizontal panorama looks across Riffelsee from the Riffelberg-Trail at approximately 2,774 metres. The lake occupies the foreground and reflects the surrounding rocky ridge and distant snow-covered mountains. A pointed peak appears on the right, while a narrow path follows the shoreline through sparse grass and exposed rock. Strong morning sunlight from the upper left creates bright highlights, deep shadows, and visible lens flare.
