Photo of the Day (2/26/07)

by Iva Skoch on Feb 26, 2007

Thought I’d share this shot, taken a couple of days ago, looking out of a window at the ancient and famous Chateau de Chillon (Montreux, Switzerland). Lake Geneva spreads out beneath the Alps, looking exactly as it did when Lord Byron wrote The Prisoner of Chillon.

As Switzerland suffers through its warmest winter since they’ve been keeping records (140 years), the beauty is undiminished, while snow is scarce.
