Per Aspera ad Astra by lightpix

Milky Way bow over hiker on Faltegartenkoepfl Tyrol, Austria. I named the pic "Per Aspera ad Astra"‬ (through hardships to the stars) for I haven't experienced a comparable cold bivouac the whole winter (and yes, we´ve had a few this winter season ). Pretty weird that the coldest one in winter season 2014/15 had been the first bivouac in spring. The whole equipment had been covered with frost within minutes. If I hadn´t used a "Lensheater" I would´t have been able to realize a single 30 sec shot without frost on the front lens. After one hour of shooting even my clothes had been covered with frost and after 3 hours I had to get in my expedition down sleeping bag for my toes had been completely numb. At least I have been able to realize two shots I had been thinking of for months. Only in spring the milky way has the perfect alignment for the "bow" over the hiker. In the light polluted valley you can see my home 1500m below. During my toes were coming back to "life" tinglingly and stingingly, my second camera had been shooting a timelapse sequence for the rest of the night. via 500px http://500px.com/photo/105946145

Sentimental Journey by janpusdrowski

Better on BLACK! More images on Facebook More images on G+ Alpine mountain path on the german-autrian border. Due to heavy snowfalls two days prior to this shot many paths were almost hip-deep covered in snow. This one is a handheld-shot I took on my way to the Leutascher Geisterklamm (Ghostravine) bridge, which I sadly wasn't able to reach due to the snow. via 500px http://bit.ly/1DuPMIF
