![500px provided description: With my friend K?vin Brenguier, we decided to wake up before the sunrise and go gatch the sun rising on the top of a mountain at La Clusaz in the french Alps. We hicked all the way up to a closed restaurant. The actual valley we chose in a ski station during the winter. Taken in La Clusaz, Haute-Savoie, France. Spring 2015. Shot with Minolta SRT101 loaded with Fuji Superia 200.
