A beautiful image. Reminds me of the time I (nearly) climbed the Matterhorn. Most images don't convey the immensity of this amazing structure, but this one does!

This image is more powerful and gives more a feeling, then the B+W image. This is more like capturing a moment in time, when the B+W to me is just a portrait of a large piece of rock. Personally, I think the other image is somewhat boring and does not hold my attention of very long...but this one does for sure!

You shoot any B+W at the same time you did this image? If so, I would like to see that as well!

Hi Ryan and all

Thanks for the nice comments but I do not have a similar in B&W like this one because it was very windy and the condition changed very fast. 5 minutes bevor this shoot was taken the "horu" as the Walliser say still was fully covered. But I will look for a more dramatic one in B&W to.
I was lucky enough to shoot all pictures out of the window of my hotel otherwise I would not have any LF pics only digital because of the wind blowing so strong!

Brilliant photo. It leaves me in awe of climbers who feel compelled to challenge it.
