Fulgurance of the Matterhorn between two storms, immortalized in this square black and white format from the Schwarzsee region. This photograph transports us to the foot of the Matterhorn, in the heart of the Valais Alps. Between light and shadow, the Hörnli ridge guides our gaze to the summit the Matterhorn. Observe the textures of the Matterhorn's east face. You can see an infinite number of details. As for the rocks on the north face, plunged into shadow, they seem to breathe at last after having withstood the fury of the Alpine winds. The immaculately white south ridge cuts through the sky with precision. The Picco Muzio, usually marked by exposed rocks, is here entirely whitewashed.

This fleeting moment gives the Matterhorn an unprecedented appearance, underlining its status as the undisputed lord of the Zermatt valley. A moment suspended between two storms, it invites me to hold my breath to fully grasp the beauty of this spectacle. See how the lenticular cloud is about to form over the summit. This cloud inspires my art as it makes me dream. Our imagination awakens at the sight of these swirling mists: Powerful dragon spitting vaporous flames, majestic bird with wings spread wide... What do you perceive? Ephemeral images born of nature and nourishing our imagination.

I've waited patiently for the moment when the subtle balance of the elements sublimates the mountain. This photograph expresses all the intensity, beauty and grandeur of the Matterhorn, giving my art its most vibrant and authentic expression.
