In front of the immensity of the Weisshorn, which rises to 4506 metres, Thomas Crauwels is awe-inspiring. This mountain, one of the jewels in the imperial crown, dominates the Zermatt and Anniviers valleys with unrivalled presence. For Thomas, the North Ridge of the Weisshorn is the epitome of mountaineering, a promise of challenge and splendour, a mythical ascent route that captivates with its beauty and demanding standards.
Each shot by Thomas reveals the majestic pyramid of the Weisshorn in all its glory, illuminated by the first light of the sun or under the stormy winds of winter. His photographs transcend reality, offering a vision where the ridge seems to split the sky, a world where the contrasts between Shadows and lights tell the eternal story of time and nature.
For Thomas, immortalizing the Weisshorn is a pilgrimage to the extraordinary, a quest to capture this celestial pyramid which, from Zermatt or Anniviers, inspires dream and contemplation. Through his lens, he shares not only the grandeur of the Weisshorn, but also his deep respect for this mountain, symbol of Alpine magnificence, guardian of the valley and beacon for adventurous souls.
