Day to day in the Alps

I’ve been meaning to blog these pictures for a while. The beautiful weather we are having promoted me to get on with it. On the weekend we had some cold wet weather, the upshot is that when the sun returned on Monday the vistas were incredible.

This picture has was taken by the webcam at 10am on Monday 19/9/2011, it’s situated at 2120m between Samoens and Flaine.

By Thursday afternoon almost all the snow has gone.

Which brings me to the photos I had in mind. The first was taken at the begining of December last year.

It was taken by one of the Alpine Property agents, advertising an apartment in St Jean d’Aulps, Apt Bayard, it reminds me of something Russian?

Followed by this one, taken a day later, by a photographer who works with the Tourist Office in St Jean d’Aulps, 100m away from the point of view used above.

Now I know St Jean d’Aulps is pretty, but I would not go beyond that, this photographer makes this little village look world class. Take a look at the albums on this link
