The second photo is so intriguing with its curves.

These are all lovely and well done.

Thank you, Andrea. The 16mm /3.5 is really THE mountain lens.

All are impressive and beautiful Knut.

Personally I like the first (colors and frozen water and sky) and third one (warm overview with colours) most.

a very nice set of images. #2 is Mongo's pick for colour, perspective and sheer interest to the eye

I don't believe I've seen the perspective of the #2 image before. Gorgeous!

Thanks everyone for nice feedback.  :)  As I said earlier, the 16mm is a really exiting lens when moving around this mountains. This picture also taken with the handy D3x.  ;)

Knut, these are great, and I particularly like #1 and 2.

Did you de-fish the image #2?  It is difficult to tell when there is no subject that is straight in the real world and the horizon is in the center.

No de-fishing, just a tiny crop top and bottom. I,m getting to know this lens now and the trick is to use time..  ;)

Thanks for the disclosure.  I know you are mastering this lens of character.  :)
