Eidelweiss

The Alps are alive with flowers at the moment thanks to the cold month of June we had!
Yippeee!

 

Very nice Edelweiss! This one is worth adding to the Botany Photo of the Day list. Location and altitude would be useful.

 

Photo taken in Switzerland, Mauvoisin (in the val de Bagnes, near Verbier) at approx. 1500 meters.

 

Agreed - with your permission, I'd happily use it on Photo of the Day.

 

Hi Daniel & Michael,
I am happy to have a beautiful eidelweiss as a photo of the day.
The thing is, I have sooooo many photos to give you!
Is there a way to make a slide show of some of the flowers I meet on my alpine walks?

 

Hi
I was searching for a photo of a eidelweiss and immediatly came across your picture
which is fantastic I am looking to print this flower onto a funeral service sheet and was wondering if the jpeg could be forwarded on please It's a great shot

HI Alan,

I am sorry that you are contacting me for a funeral, but how nice to remember someone through beautiful flowers.
Of course you can use it, as long as you say that the photo was taken by CherriesWalks.com.
I have many more photos i can send you through picasa if you would like.
Give me your email address and I will send them through ASAP.
All my best,
Cherries

 

Cherries thank you for that offer my e-mail address is

I will acknowledge you on the service sheet
Kind regards

Hi Allan,

I am sending you a link to Picasa through my email of all my eidelweiss photos.
All my condolences to you on your loss.
Enjoy the photos.
