Alphorn Trio at Dawn on Winter Mountain Pass

by Breanna Whitley

First rays of pale winter sun cut across a high mountain pass near Leh, illuminating three musicians in heavy wool coats. They stand on snow-crusted rock, holding long wooden alphorns angled toward the valley. Colorful prayer flags snap violently in the wind, their fabric stretched taut against the grey sky. Snow rests on the tips of the instruments and dusts the musicians' fur-lined hoods. The low angle emphasizes the towering scale of the surrounding peaks, which rise sharply above the players. Shadows stretch long across the frozen ground, sharp and blue-tinted by the cold light. One prayer flag edge flutters near the nearest musician's shoulder, catching the morning glow.
