Glaciers are a breathtaking sight during winter, but their beauty is fading away. The Morteratsch Glacier is dying just in front of our eyes. In the last 10 years, the icy surface of the glacier has disappeared, leaving behind only rocks. As a photographer it is our responsibility to capture what is left of this vanishing beauty in our little time capsule called camera. Let's record the presence before it becomes a distant memory.
