Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy

@MadScientist: You're right. It looks like a great mountain to climb. Thanks, MS.

@amy: The Rockies are higher so more dramatic and amazing. The Dolomites can have a pink tinge and limestone outcroppings so are also very beautiful in their own right. But on a smaller scale.

@Kristen Piece: Thank you, Kristen. A kind comment.

@Japanalia: You're right. Thanks, Gabriela.

@dailyphotosofmalé: Quite right. The camera only sees a small part of what the eyes and brain absorb. As my daughter once said, wouldn't it be nice if there was a camera where you just blinked your eyes, and it recorded exactly what you saw and felt. Thanks for visiting.
