EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking panoramic print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Bernina Mountains in Switzerland. The image showcases the majestic Bernina Range, adorned with two prominent glaciers - Pers on the left and Morteratsch on the right. As you gaze at this stunning vista, your eyes are drawn to the towering peaks of Piz Palu on the top left and Piz Bernina at the center-right, standing tall against a backdrop of clear blue skies. The photograph also reveals an important environmental message as large lateral moraines, composed of debris deposited by retreating glaciers, can be seen at their mouths. This evidence clearly indicates that these once mighty glaciers are receding over time. It serves as a poignant reminder of our changing climate and its impact on these icy giants. Immerse yourself in this landscape where snow-capped mountains meet glacial waters. The serene alpine setting is characterized by its geographical wonders - from icy peaks to frozen snouts - all harmoniously blending into one picturesque panorama. As you admire this remarkable print from Science Photo Library, let it transport you to a world where nature's grandeur unfolds before your eyes. Experience firsthand why Switzerland's mountainous terrain has captivated explorers and nature enthusiasts for centuries.
