Some groups of alpinists are visible on the glacier slope on the left of the image.Panorama pic, 4 images stitched. Original size is about 6590x1450px.
Full view recommended. Thanks for viewing.

Love this shot. The textures between the snow, the clouds and the rocky outcroppings on either side are really awesome. Also love the ridges in the ice/snow sliding down the mountain on the left. Very cool!

the title comes somehow from there... there's not a precipice behind the glacier, but from where i was when i took the shots it looked just like world's edge, with those clouds coming up from "nowhere"

And I almost always like panorama's, but with the snow and the clouds it's very good looking.
