253 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
La Tomba, Val-Cenis, France
The Iseran massif is a mountainous group of the Vanoise Alps and the Grand Arc (Alpi Graie), located in the French department of Savoy. All the peaks that are part of it are abundantly over 3000 meters high.
This area is located on the border between Italy and France and in winter is known for its ski sports facilities, which start from the small municipalities of Lanslevillard and Lanslebourg.
I often go to this area to photograph, because the light, especially in the afternoon, comes cut from the left side and creates spectacular plays of light that highlight the rock formations of the massif and all the shapes that have been created by erosion on the enormous slopes.
If you explore the photo, you will see how many rocky shapes can be seen, small canyons and gleaming limestone rocky views, waterfalls that jump tens of meters, streams that arise at high altitude and descend to the valley tracing endless paths. Larch and pine forests embellish the whole area, full of pastures and mountain pastures inhabited all summer (you can see in the photo some houses inhabited by the mountaineers who live up there with their cattle in the summer).
To take this photo I positioned myself in the only point that allows the view of the interior valley, tens of kilometers long, completely surmounted by gigantic mountains: a small square where a control shed was mounted for some antennas used for telecommunications
