Photo by @bentibbettsphotography Mountaineering, photography, drawing ? it all came together for British photographer and alpinist Ben Tibbetts (@bentibbettsphotography) at university. ?I was studying history of art and fine art, and to pay my way, I was working as a climbing instructor,? says Ben, who now lives part of the year in France. Just beyond his doorstep, he?s spent the past few years climbing all 82 of the European Alps? peaks that are 4,000 meters or higher and is publishing a book detailing the journeys? technical routes, historical context and personal stories. ?The routes range from easy to really quite hard alpinism, and I?ve climbed every single one of them,? says Ben, who took photos of the mountain landscapes throughout his expeditions. ?Being in these mountains is humbling. It?s so beautiful, delicate and majestic ? and we all need to do our bit to keep it like it is.? Today on our story, join Ben on an alpine expedition. ?
