Needle of Rochefort
Perched on the border ridge between France and Italy, the Aiguille de Rochefort embodies for Thomas Crauwels pure elegance and Alpine precision. This slender summit , culminating at 4,001 metres, offers a striking vision, marked by the finesse of its lines and the vertigo of its sharp edges. Through his photographs, Thomas captures the moments when the Aiguille de Rochefort is adorned in the most beautiful light, revealing a subtle, ethereal silhouette, suspended between heaven and earth.
Each of Thomas 's shots reflects a meticulous search the perfect moment, when the mountain reveals itself in fleeting splendor. The Aiguille de Rochefort then becomes more than just a summit : it is a delicate dance between light and shadow, a perfect balance, symbolizing the infinite challenge of the Alps. For Thomas Crauwelsto immortalize this needle is to reveal the very essence of mountaineering: the quest for a sublime, ephemeral moment.

We were bowled over!
My wife and I are amazed at the quality of print and the rendering of this magnificent photo. We had waited many years to put a picture on this blank wall because we had never "flashed" on a piece of art. Now we've found it, and it fits in perfectly at the entrance to our apartment. What's more, it depicts 3 summits that are particularly close to our hearts: the Weisshorn, Dent Blanche and the Matterhorn - quite a symbol...
We'd like to thank you again for your impeccable service (rapid response to enquiries, hyper-realistic projection of the work on the photos of the wall beforehand). In short, we have nothing to complain about and look forward to seeing you at an opening.

The purity of the lines, the simply unique viewpoints, the photographic work carried out by Thomas and the exceptional quality of prints make them works of art.

We enjoy it every day!
As former inhabitants of Zermatt, it's hard to forget the Matterhorn, even in a new environment of mountains and nature.we discovered this large photo of the Matterhorn in a gallery, so strong and intense, it was impossible to forget it........ It became obvious that it should adorn our new apartment as a centerpiece.What's more, we had a very sympathetic contact with the artist, who came himself to deliver his work.It's very appreciable and adds a dimension to the object, to know its creator, his passion, the conditions under which it was taken.The texture of the photo resembles a painting, the lights play on it, Next the hours. It seems alive. A real daily pleasure!
