This is a fairly typical size for a human in my pics although it is probably stretching the definition of portrait… I kind of prefer humans to be the scale that shows how big and beautiful nature is. Anyhow, this guy is enjoying the view down the Chamonix valley with Mont Blanc appearing from the cloud on the left. I have to fess up that we got the cable car half-way to this point and walked the rest. Our 70+ year old friend walked from the bottom and was only 20 minutes behind us. It was a fabulous days walking.
Been quite nice here today. Enjoyed a walk with a friend (sans woolly hats today) and have been cutting back the garden. Bessie has been helpfully stealing twigs and scattering them round the garden.
Stunning. I’m just meditating imagining the mountain air. Your friend sounds like Nigel’s dad - I had imagined that there would be a time when he slowed down so I’d be able to walk alongside instead of struggling and sweating along behind but I’m slowing up and he is still going at the same pace. Bessie busy being a working dog.
@judithg hmm yes that was after the 5 mile walk although she has sat down now. I need to up my game to keep up with Philip in case we're ever allowed to meet up again.
I didn’t realise I was t following you this time Alison....great memories of a wonderful holiday climbing. The tiny figure is so good to judge the scale.
@happypat Yes all my photos and connections were deleted because I hadn't logged in for a couple of years. Anyway, I sneaked back as a lock-down project and have been quietly lurking about.
