Good shots Scurra, nicely framed. Really like the light you caught on the 3rd as well as the clouds and layers of mountains.

Oh, fond memories of a trip to Jungfraujoch and Eiger are coming back to me with these, though my visit there was probably long before even your parents had MET, Ben

.

The Eiger and Pebbles-photo shows the much-dreaded-by-climbers north wall of Eiger, from what little I know one of the hardest climbs ever (anyone knows it better?).

Have you also been to the Ice Palace up inside Eiger? (Or whereever that is? Mind you I was there at the beginning of the Seventies, either in 1970 or 1971... and that is A LOOOOOONG TIME ago!!!!

But I was already here on this earth at the time... :roll: )

Hehe thanks for the compliments guys, I did indeed have a blast, but It wasn't my first trip over there so I knew what to expect in terms of photography.

The Eiger and pebbles photo is indeed the north face of the Eiger, a notorious climber deathtrap.

And yes LaPhoto I did go to the Ice palace at the top. It's as always very cold but very beautiful.

I'll sort through my images and see If I can come up with some more I like.
