This picture of Mont-Blanc (litterally Mount-White), or Monte-Bianco in Italian, has been taken on an IFR departure from Geneva, approximately passing 7'000ft climbing to FL090.It is one of the privileges of flying IFR in this region to have such views, as all VFR have to remain much lower, below airpsace C of the TMA.
It was a high pressure summer day, in early enough in the morning to have no thermal activity at all, explaining the low haze layers. The colors have not been modified, they probably look blue-ish as a combination of taking the shot trough the plane window, and because of the zoom factor and side-light.
Looking at this picture fills me with smoothness and relaxation, as was the flight on this day.
