ALT A quiet winter day in the Scottish Highlands, where fresh snow settles across the mountains and open glens. A small white cottage sits beneath the slopes, with streams running through the valley and an old stone bridge crossing the water nearby. The muted light, brown grasses and snow-covered peaks give the landscape a cold, remote feeling, while the empty paths and wide valleys make everything feel unusually still. by Lewis Hackett (@lhackett)

ALT The abandoned Hotel Belvédère on Switzerland’s Furka Pass, built in 1882 and once a popular stop for travellers crossing the Alps. As cars made the journey faster, fewer people stayed overnight, and the hotel eventually closed in 2015. Today, its dramatic setting beside the winding mountain road has made it an iconic sight in the Swiss Alps. by Edvardas (@xxi.vision)
