That is pretty. Those iPhones are pretty amazing. Looks like the X does a great job. That is a big dynamic range. I am still using a 7S but it often surprises me how well it does. PS...wish I was there!!

Thanks, Terri. I thought the same thing about the dynamic range. I've done nothing to this image other than a slight crop.

Very nice composition and the image looks good considering that it was taken with an iPhone.

I like the composition but as someone who has just returned home from Florida I cannot see why you are not home at this time of year.

Funny. Allan, it's always in the 80's and sunny here this time of year. Nice to break up the monotony with some cooler weather in the alps.

Ha!

Nice shot

I’m now using my Xs as my LS camera when I’m on a wildlife trip

I've a photo from that exact spot made in May, 2012. (How can it be that long ago?)

How's the skiing?

Amazing dynamic range in these new phone cameras.

Beautiful shot ... and you're right about the new iPhones. I am continually amazed at the quality of the X-series (I have a XR). I still use my "real" camera most of the time, but the phone certainly replaces a "point and shoot" completely for "snapshots".

Jim, the skiing was good but not great. This was a lean year and they had not had any fresh snow for 7 days. However, I did not come to Zermatt just for the skiing. It was a great experience to ski in the Alps with my family. Viewing the Matterhorn while skiing down the mountains was thrilling. Plus, we skied from Switzerland down into Italy (a 7km run) one day for lunch. Where else can you do that?
