Herd of sheeps and goats crossing the road in front of a car at the Col du Glandon in Savoie this autumn (France). I allowed myself a small modification of the traffic sign to give priority to the herd over the car, the mountain being the territory of wildlife and not humans. :-)

We were making our way from Grenoble city up to the Fort de la Bastille. It’s a long series of steep, winding roads to get to the top and we welcomed a short break on hike up. I captured this moment of my friend Alex overlooking Grenoble and I think it came out beautifully.

I love this picture. I took it from the Aiguille du Midi in Rhône-Alpes, France at 3,800 meters. The team walking into this perfectly white landscape with the cliff on the left gives you goosebumps.

Whilst skiing this paraglider launched from the piste next to me. Luckily I had my camera in a back pack and after some fumbling was able to share his vista gliding down into the valley. Really pleased to catch a moment with better contrast whilst he was framed against the sky rather than the darker forest

This February me and my wife took a long planned trip snowboarding to Chamonix. We stayed in a small village just outside the main town centre called La Praz which gave us fantastic views of the Mt Blanc range. One afternoon whilst taking our daily walk back to our amazing hotel, I managed to capture this epic shot of the sun slicing through the range to spotlight one of the peaks. Hope you guys enjoy.
