My first stop in Switzerland was Lauterbrunnen, a short ride South of Interlaken, where I was staying for the night. I'd seen lots of idyllic photographs of this picturesque little valley, and was excited to see it for myself. However, when I arrived it was shrouded in mist, so I could actually see very little of it!

These photographs were taken with my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV and the extraordinary Canon EF 35mm f/1.4 II.

About the photographer

I'm Alex Nichol. I'm an amateur photographer from the North of England. For me, photography is a way to share what I love most about the world. That includes everything, from family and friends, to wild animals and breathtaking places... or maybe just how the sun twinkles on a weed in my back garden. It's all fair game.
