The photo above showing
snow-covered
Mount
Cervino in a cobalt blue sky, reflecting in
beautiful
Lago
Blu (Blue Lake), was snapped in the
Pennine Alps on the border of Italy and
Switzerland. Mount Cervino (14,690 ft or 4,478 m),
better known outside Italy as the
Matterhorn, is one of the
highest peaks in
the Alps. The easily recognized pyramid shape
towers over Lago Blu (6,293 ft or 1,918 m) in the
Aosta
Valley of northwestern Italy. Crystal clear Lago
Blu is fed by
springs and surrounded by century-old
larch
trees. Photo taken on May 4, 2012.
