Shadow Shot Sunday 2: alpine streams


From the trees and bushes beside them to the bridges crossing over them, there are always shadows to be found on or near streams in the Swiss Alps, as we discovered during a trip on the Glacier Express train in April, 2011.

Watery scenes, seen in the Swiss Alps

The last in a week of posting from our April adventure in the Swiss Alps.
Hope you haven't been bored!



The scenes above were shot earlier this year from the train going through the Swiss Alps.
The photos below were taken in St. Moritz, the terminus of the Glacier Express luxury train, during our March/April European vacation.

Almost at the last minute before our March and April trip to Europe, Dick surprised me with the idea of a train through the Swiss Alps. Having already booked a Eurail pass through RailEurope, he decided an additional charge for the luxurious Glacier Express would be worth it, and it was! After a night in St. Moritz, we took another train down from the mountains, and changed for Zurich.
