Silhouettes

A contemplative Rosie at sunset
My major project for the last few months -- and many more in the future -- is labeling and categorizing the tens of thousands of photos I have taken over the years. When the project is complete I will be able to find any picture very quickly. To do this I have to go through every picture -- a rather tedious task at times. But it also yields some surprises and brings back countless wonderful memories.

This evening I was working through some photos of our trip to Switzerland in August 2003 and came across these silhouettes taken at sunset on the top of the Niesen (7,500 Feet) near Interlaken Switzerland. That was an unforgettable evening that yielded some beautiful silhouettes of my beloved wife and the children that were with us.

Steve, Marc, Paul and Rebekah are lined up on the summit.
Marc strikes his signature pose against the setting sun.
Here is one more silhouette of Marc and Steve against the mighty Eiger. This was taken in Grindelwald, Switzerland early one morning in August 2008 as the three of us embarked on an adventurous hike to a Swiss Alpine Club hut.
