Grüß Di' Bergkamerad Patrick (German version),

Very nice and interesting equipment still life photo. Looks like the mountain boots have the ski binding nails mounted around the soles. The rucksack is the civilian Tauern Rucksack with the canvas triangular support frame. The one piton hammer has been modified. The Kletterschuhe on the right look like the early all-leather type with rope soles. Finally, there is the Bergmütze with the forward facing metal Edelweiss with some real Edelweiss added....maybe this was from an former Austrian.

Looks similar to the photo I took during a climb in the French Alps in 2010:
