A paraglider sails into view — Lauterbrunnen valley, Switzerland:

  1. I’d guess you had time to take the ride up to and through the Eiger… any photos of Jungfrau, Fiescherhorner, or any other of those magnificent peaks above KleineSchiedegg? (It was thirty three years ago that I was there – the only images I have are stored in my greymatter)

  2. Somehow that paraglider seems like an intrusion…

  3. The 2 images are so different it almost looks like a PhotoShop.

  4. I really like the contrast. As it happens, I had lined up a shot of the valley without even knowing the paraglider was there, and when I snapped it, boom — there he/she was. I thought it was pretty cool.

    We didn’t take Jungfraujoch this time — we did it in ’93 and haven’t bothered since.
