Ice on mountain summit

The image shows a tiny glacier on the west-facing summit of Mount Sefton in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. It is impressive how the ice sticks to the steep slpes and the tiny clouds gives the image a special character. The image is a symbol how in the maritime climate of the regions, all suitable summits are covered by glaciers.
