Here's a set of images taken on a hike from the mountain village Salvan to the Lac de ('lake of') Salanfe in the Swiss Alps. It was a foggy day, so a perfect opportunity to neglect the big scenery and focus on the beautiful alpine Spring flowers. These pictures were taken between 1000 and 2000 meters above sea level, and as a general rule: the higher one gets, the smaller the vegetation becomes. So don't be fooled: I used my newly obtained macro lense for this, many of these flowers are tiny!
