Europe Part 1 : Switzerland

My Life

Well, the Time has come. I’ve been wanting to post photos from our Europe trip since we got home, but I first of all had to wait on the film to get processed, and then life caught up to us. To see the Intro and background to our trip, I did that post a bit earlier, go see it here!

Can I just say, I LOVED getting prints of all the film I shot while in Europe. I have a stack of probably 200 photos that I absolutely adore. Just as a heads up, this is the shortest Europe post I’ll be doing. In France and Italy I shot the majority of my film, and let’s just say I’m considering selling prints on Etsy I love them so much.The first part of this post is film, second part is digital.

Now, for part 1 to our story:

The photo on the left is Lauterbrunnen, and yes that’s a waterfall that just happens to be falling above a cliff providing a picturesque location for a town.

I mean really, isn’t it just beautiful?!

The car/planter combo just makes me giddy. Something about it I just love!

Don’t have to worry about your kids in this neighborhood! The only way to get out of this town is a funicular that leaves 4 times a day. :)

Love this film shot of Ry

Here’s my film shot, Ryan’s digital shot is further down! I love how eerie it is!

Oh you know, just hanging out in the mountains, taking pictures of cows.

Each family  is awarded HUGE cowbells for their cows at the local cow pageant (which we saw…see below!)

Inside a room made of ice at the Jungfrau (the tallest mountain in Europe)

You don’t have to be unfashionable while you hike! ;)

Yep, that’s me!! Ryan took these!

That’s me too!

Me on the left, Ryan’s feet hanging 100s of feet above jagged cliffs and trees.

Totally not my typical postprocess, but this fun photo Ryan nabbed of me called for it.

One of my faves!

The prettiest church I’ve ever seen, in Lucerne.

We’re avid hikers, can you tell? :)
