Notes from the photographer: “On the slopes where in winter the skiers thunder down the legendary Lauberhorn piste, there are some beautiful walks in summer. Unlike the daredevils who descend at breakneck speed, hikers have plenty of time to enjoy the fantastic alpine scenery of the Bernese Oberland. This route winds along on wide but sometime steep paths from the resort of Wengen up to the Wengernalp and on to the Kleine Scheidegg, with the world-famous outline of the Eiger, the Mönch and the Jungfrau in front of you all the way. However, it is only on the stretch between the Wengernalp and the Kleine Scheidegg that the whole panorama of the three mountain giants unfolds before you. During the first part of the climb, your gaze is drawn to the glittering peak of the Silberhorn. Down below are the imposing steep cliffs of the Lauterbrunnen valley. “

Two of nature’s most spectacular forces produced an incredible brew in the skies of Chile as a volcanic eruption met a lightning storm. Tons of dust and ash from the eruption of the Chaiten volcano poured into the night sky just as an electric storm passed overhead. The resulting collision created a spectacular sight as lightning flickered around the dust cloud amid the orange glow of the volcano. The eruption was all the more spetacular because the Chaiten volcano, 800 miles south of Santiago, has been dormant for nine thousand years. The Patagonian volcano left a 12 mile high plume and left vast tracts of land coated with a layer of ash.
