Pangong Tso Lake Photo

Photographer’s Note

Pangong Tso (or Pangong lake; Tso: Ladakhi for lake) is a lake in the Himalayas situated at a height of about 4250 m (13,900 ft). It is 134 km (83.3 mi) long and extends from India to Tibet. Two thirds of the length of this lake falls in the People's Republic of China. It is 5 km (3 mi) wide at its broadest point. In winter, the lake surface freezes completely despite being salt water.

Pangong Tso can be reached in a five-hour drive from Leh, most of it on a rough and dramatic mountain road.

Hi Subhash,
This place looks very interesting and reminds me of the high altitude lakes of South America.
I decided to give some more life to the image since I think it lacks some contrast and light.
