Towards the Blinnenhorn (Corno Cieco)

Taken whilst travelling from Italy to Switzerland on the famous Gothard Pass in September 2013. I think we are looking backwards here, southwest towards the Swiss Ticino mountain range around Basòdino.

Tolle Landschaft dort. Mit der E-410 habe ich auch einst den Weg in die digitale Spiegelreflexkamera genommen, dann aber sehr schnell zur D60 von Nikon gewechselt
