Winter Wonderland in Chamonix

Winter Wonderland in Chamonix



Nestled
snuggly at the foot of Mont Blanc is the quaint,
bustling town of Chamonix. The valley extends from Servoz to
Barberine on the Swiss border. It is not a manufactured resort but
rather a town which over time evolved into the world capital of
alpinism and offers skiing that brings people from all corners of
the globe. I took a few days alone to wander the backstreets, take
small mountain roads and generally search for the views others had
yet to find. Armed with an old Hasselblad V series camera and
several rolls of Kodak Portra I set off. One of my favourite things
about photographing in the mountains is that you can shoot in
almost any weather, the landscape is so vast and varied that the
entire valley is like a studio.
