Winter In Full Force at 3,000 Metres, Seceda Mountain Range, Dolomites, Italy

While running my workshop in the Dolomites last October, I ventured to a place that I had not been able to reach the previous year as the cable cars close down around the end of the first week in October.

So I took my five lovely clients up to the summit of the Seceda, a remarkable 8,200ft mountain range, to capture the mid-morning light. On arriving at the gondola station, we were informed that snow had fallen overnight and that it was sub-zero temperatures on top. So seven €32 tickets were purchased and we boarded the large gondola to the mid-way station to board a smaller gondola. The views up there were staggering.

Stepping out from the gondola station onto the freshly fallen snow while the views all around were bathed in lovely light was just magical. Yes, it was a tad chilly but when the clouds rolled in and started to swirl around the peaks, it became very atmospheric.

It was well worth enduring the cold temperatures but on the flip side, we got to enjoy a hot chocolate and lunch in the summit restaurant. Have a marvellous Monday evening everyone
