View of the grand Morteratsch glacier, its valley and surrounding peaks of the Bernina range (incl. its namesake Piz Bernina, 4050m, on the right). Most of the valley is already in deep shade, only the highest peaks are illuminated in golden sunset light. On the right side of the valley, the line between vegetation and gray rock in the parts where the glacier has already retracted, marks the previous extent of the glacier. Large pieces of exposed bedrock. Blue sky with streaky clouds.

View across a large glacier (from the same moraine & position as other photo) towards the opposite side of the valley with its 4000m peaks, hidden below a thick layer of snow and ice, some side glaciers and bare major rock faces dusted in snow. Some dried brown grass in the bottom-right corner.

A glacier side moraine with an almost imperceptible path on its ridge is leading into a sea of ice, rocks and snow in the not so far distance. The massive glacier is just a few dozen meters below from where the picture was taken. It flows & drops down from the peaks in the back (all ~4000m and around 1300m higher up for my position), forming a maze of large seracs on the way. Sunny day with blue sky and some wispy clouds.

Short POV video of a mountain river with crystal clear pale blue water gently flowing. At the beginning of the video some trees are bent over the water, the view then pans to follow the flow with mountains in the background...
