BY HELICOPTER OVER THE SWISS ALPS

A dozen flights were needed to produce the Swiss Peaks series. A work in lofty heights, in the midst of the sublime Swiss mountains. A job that demanded a lot of preparation from the team around Nico Schaerer: weather conditions and safety played a decisive role.
The photographer, who grew up in Switzerland himself, says: "The mountains are my retreat". And this connection with the giants can be felt when you look at the pictures.
