Rhone Glacier, Switzerland | A Landscape on Borrowed Time | Landscape Photography
“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.” - Rachel Carson
Greetings fellow Photography Lovers, Travellers and Discoverers!
Today marks the 3rd edition from my Swiss gallery.
This time the theme is gonna be totally different from the last two posts. This time the landscapes are gonna be in tune with nature as they can be, cuz it’s time for some Glaciers.
This is the so called “Rhone Glacier” and it is the most popular and historically important glaciers in Switzerland.
Well some say it’s also the most striking in the whole Alps i can’t vouch for that, but it’s beautiful.
Anyway it is also located near the Furka Pass and it’s elevation is around 3000 meters above sea level. You can actually spot it easy from the road itself.
The Glacier itself is source from Europe’s major rivers - River Rhone
It flows through Switzerland, Lake Geneva and also through France so i could say that this particular Glacier is important for whole lotta people and yeah standing before it feels powerful.
That’s it for today i invite you to follow me one last time very soon where i will share with you my last piece of my photography with close up shots of the ancient blue ice and some close up shots beneath the actual ice caps.
Im leaving the best for last and definitely me as a photographer my best photography ever.
See ya! 👋🏻😄

The glacier lookks amazing 😍 I never see one with my eyes only in photos! I wish I could visit this place one day we'll Switzerland it's not so far from Italy 😁
Your photos really convey a sense of “layered silence,” as you so beautifully put it. The ice seems both fragile and eternal, giving a sense of depth and respect. I especially like how you captured the contrast between the massiveness of the ice and the subtle nuances within it. In these shots of yours, you feel like you were not just an observer, but a true contemplative.

Im sorry what exactly what have i done wrong? My last two posts are about this region and i have applied for the travel digest why cant i participate in the travel digest with this post? It’s the best photography i have ever taken why cant i participate?
The Travel Digest is about more than good pictures.. it is about the stories behind them. We want to know what makes a place special to you and what you learned when you were there. We want to feel like we're there, with you and that is what makes a good post. While in some cases we understand there isn't much to be shared, we considered your post could easily come with a longer number of words to explain better what you felt while being there and what the place is all about. Hope that makes sense.
