The black-and-white photo, taken with the Leica Monochrom and the Summicron-M 1:2/35, masterfully captures the stunning beauty of the Bernese Oberland. The crisp black-and-white contrasts of the Leica Monochrom enhance the dramatic impact of the mountains and the landscape surrounding Gstaad.
The summer sun, positioned high in the sky at midday, casts a harsh, almost glaring light on the Bernese and Vaud Alps. This vertical light accentuates the sharp contours of the peaks and highlights every detail of the rugged, rocky terrain. At the same time, the Monochrom camera brings out the subtle nuances of the shadows, adding incredible depth and texture to the image.
The vast valleys and majestic mountain peaks are captured in timeless black and white, reducing the essence of the landscape to its purest form and conveying an almost meditative stillness. The combination of your eye for the perfect moment, the midday light, and the precision of the Leica equipment results in an image that powerfully reflects the untamed nature of the Bernese Oberland.
