Evocatively refreshing view...

From my window - Nyon (Switzerland

We tend too often to take for granted what we have as its sure availability made it banal and less precious.

Event thought it’s not possible to correct completely this flaw, since it’s part of our imperfect (and for this reason so wonderful) nature, we can be fully aware of it at least.


I’m so used to have a splendid natural display just out of my window that I not always appreciate it as it would deserve.


The Mount Blanc, all happily covered with snow (lucky mountain!)is getting pinkish in the light of early sunset.


It’s not very clear, the heat affects the transparency of the air, but it’s there, old patient giant...

Yes, sometimes we do not do the right value of things we see everyday.
Me? I am admiring the powerful Mont Blanc through your lens. Been there years ago and intend to come back. Lucky you, my friend. :))

Vous avez ce point de vue d'après votre maison? Vous êtes très chanceux.

It looks incredibly close in this; I think you once told me it was over 40 miles away?! That's like me being able to see ipswich from my window (thankfully, I can't :-) A beautiful sight, I wouldn't be able to take my eyes off it (when its visible, that is).

Lucky you, once seen these mountains are never forgotten.

We aren't all so fortunate to have such views from our windows, but beauty is all around us if we look hard enough to find it... v

Imposing sight indeed. Is it permanently snowcapped? It must be a good barometer for climate change.
