I'm currently on a ski trip in Zermatt and this was last night's sunset. There were high clouds behind the Matterhorn, but the horizon was clear. The result was a spectacular light show, with the mountain casting a dramatic shadow. The clouds were moving fast, so this halo only lasted for a few seconds.

Shot on a Nikon D850, 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6. You can see more of my photography here: https://www.instagram.com/dibayo/

This picture is amazing! It kinda looks as if the sky opened so that a giant blaster could be fired from the Matterhorn, à la Death Star...

Technically this is the Matterhorn, and zermatt is the town that you get this view from. But its a big mountain so you don't have to be in zermatt to get this view

Good point. I titled this based on the location where the image was shot - the Riffelalp, which is in the town of Zermatt. I'm Swiss, so the first thing I thought of was "I'm in Zermatt, I'll put that in the title" But yeah, Matterhorn would have been more accurate.
