Description
_______ Heavy snow was forecast for today, so I took my Nikon yesterday and drove up the Ballon d'Alsace, one of the highest mountains in the south of the Vosges, about 20 minutes from home. Then, it was an hour hiking with snow-shoes to the end of this trail, with a steep cliff ahead, overlooking the Rhein valley and Alsace Plain under a thick layer of mist, with the Swiss Alps in the distance and the Jungfrau (4,158 m), the Eiger(3,970 m)right before my eyes!
_______ I thought this view deserved a photo!
_______Thank you so much for your nice comments on my clock picture, and have a nice day, wherever you are.

Une photo exceptionnelle bien de saison, belle prise de vue, bravo
Great stuff mate. Thanks for your effort......
Cette magnifique photo (et je pèse mes mots !) invite à aller jusqu'au bout et...non pas à sauter mais à se perdre dans la beauté du paysage. Et quand je pense que certaine personnes n'aiment pas la montagne !!! (et il y en a qui vont voir depuis un petit avion...comme celui qu'on voit ici)
wow a breathtaking view
Oh, certains seraient prêts à se damner pour une vue et une photo pareilles ( moi y compris !) Tu en as de la chance d'avoir pu voir tout ça. Mazette! Il faudra que je retourne en Alsace et les Vosges 🚵♂️
Tu l'as dit ! Cet impressionnant point de vue valait bien une (et même plusieurs) photo ! Et celle-ci est magnifique !
Outstanding! A truly breath taking view. You are a brave soul to undertake that hike in this weather. I am one of those people who only venture outside in winter when driven by absolute necessity.
wonderful picture
**Magnifique & Unique **
En ce moment au Québec
L'endroit le plus froid sur Terre (-47c) mis a part les poles :)
Que dire, sinon que je trouve cette photo absolument fabuleuse avec une lumière presque rasante et un froid palpable! Bravo et merci de partager, Jean-Luc!
On a peine à croire que tu es au sommet d'un Ballon et que la plaine d'Alsace est en bas sous le brouillard ! la vue sur les Alpes est fantastique, et le froid nous glace.......ta photo est remarquable, merci de nous faire partager ce moment d'exception, Jean-Luc !
