Travel Photo Friday : Valle d’Aosta

written by robin

Since the weather outside is blazing hot, I thought this lovely photo submission from my friend and fellow blogger Eleonora Baldwin, of a glacier in Valle d’Aosta would cool us off for this month’s Travel Photo Friday. Elie describes her photo below:

Mont Blanc Glacier

This photo was taken during a “working vacation” in Valle d’Aosta-Vallée d’Aoste a few summers ago, on the country road that connects Entreves to Courmayeur, a short distance from the Italy-France border.

I was there for the action scenes of a film shot at 11,000 ft elevation in Helbronner Point on the Mont Blanc glacier, in four feet of July snow.

Downhill, the weather was summery, as the photo shows. The indescribable beauty of the silent montagna, the crisp mountain air, rippling waterfall and vivid colors presented in Madre Natura’s majestic exhibition, made what I captured early that mid-summer morning, one of my fondest travel memories.

Do you have a stunning photo to submit for Travel Photo Friday?

Send it, along it with a short description, to mymelange{at}yahoo{dot}com.

See you for our next edition on July 1st!
