French Alps, SOTC:straight-out-of-the-camera
photohuntCreamy landscape (click to enlarge) ... because many times when I am skiing I feel I am in a huge bowl of Chantilly Cream..!! (the sweetened whipped cream, sometimes vanilla-flavoured, which it is said to have been invented by François Vatel, maître d'hôtel at the Château de Chantilly in the 17th century.)
What a gorgeous photo! You are right, it does look like Chantilly Cream!
ReplyDeleteHappy Summer Solstice weekend!

ReplyDeleteAs a Norwegian - loving snow and skiing - this pic was just breath taking. I'm longing for winter already :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend Mar!
The creamy mountain is GORGEOUS ... but... do they REALLY make skies THAT blue???
ReplyDeleteTeehee re your idea that you're skiing in cream -- and very specifically Chantilly cream at that! :D
ReplyDeleteA very surprising analogy, snow as cream but lovely photo. Happy weekend to you Mar.

ReplyDeletebeautiful. but i prefer looking at the picture than experiencing the cold in the alps...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! It does look like cream... until you fall.
ReplyDeleteit's so beautiful!! it does look like the whole place is covered in vanilla:)
ReplyDeleteMy Ph entry is up too.
Well done, Mar! I want to jump right in and make a snow angel...
ReplyDeleteWow, this is remarkable - can even see the wind direction on the snow.
ReplyDeleteDon't talk about Creme Chantilly - it's too tempting;-))
awwww NOW that's what I AM TALKING ABOUT !
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! Want to roll in it!
Wow,.. beautiful scenery! You get a complete different view while skiing too. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteYes! It does look like whipped cream. I hope it was light and airy like it Creme Chantilly. The snow is like concrete where I live because it also rains and freezes so I don't necessarily think of snow as 'creamy'. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the decoration on a really rich Christmas cake. Creamy and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photo! I know what you mean about feeling like you're skiing on whipped cream, though it's been many years since I've done it.
ReplyDeleteI just love these colors! Yes.... That is wonderful! Thanks for making us loose some weight and not gain it. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd since it is 97 degrees here today, this picture actually helps cool me down! Thanks! Mine is up here.
ReplyDeleteIt does look like an icing scene. Lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteI love frosted pines. Hope you can stop by to view my photo hunt Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteThat's a unique take on the theme.
ReplyDeleteThis white creamy snow does remind me of whipped cream and I do want to lick it. haha.....
Happy weekend, Mar!
My! That's a very nice scenery. Thanks for dropping by and have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteCreamy white landscape! I would love to stand in there in the middle for a photo. :)
ReplyDeleteNice one for the theme!
Mine is now up..thanks for the visit. :)
It does look creamy. I'm hungry now! :D
ReplyDeleteI bet falling down a hill of cream would be a lot tastier than down a hill of snow. ;-)
ReplyDeletewhat a very romantic and nice photo..it seems cold out there...wink!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind seeing some of that out my window about now. :)
ReplyDeleteI like snow. You are right, snow is creamy, haha!
