Glowing Peaks

​

This serie called 'Glowing Peaks' shows the magical Alpenglow shining upon the highest peaks of the Alps. As a landscape photographer I've been living for that soft ambient pink light. The term ''Alpenglow'' originally comes from the German word ''Alpenglühen''. The spectacular light  is an optical phenomenon that appears when the sun is just below the horizon. Unlike the direct sunlight around sunrise or sunset, the light that causes alpenglow is reflected in the lower atmosphere.
