Rock and Ice, Clouds and Rain - Recent Images from Riederalp

We spent our summer holiday with friends visiting us from the US in Riederalp in the Swiss Alps. We have visited now 3 summers in a row and Riederalp / Bettmeralp are one of our favorite places to spend time. Quieter and less touristy than Zermatt - but depending on where you wander the views, hiking and landscape are just as incredible. We get to the local, nearby mountains nearly every week - but it is always special to come here.

Some BW work from our visit. These were all taken with the Sony a7IV and my older Sigma 70-200 2.8 S on the MC11 adapter. Some manual focus, some auto. All processed in Lr.

Last thermal of the day - I was surprised by these two pilots flying by so late in the day. They started climbing, and then flew on further - I watched them on my live tracking app (I also paraglide) and they landed in Visp, far down the valley:
