At around 17000 ft near Gurudongmar Lake
Thin layer of oxygen makes it really difficult to take photos ...
even a little louder talk will make u breatless.
Dont Talk Dont do anything ... just enjoy Beauty of Himalayas
You are about to touch Gurudongmar .... shhhhh

Hi Amit,
very beautiful shot! Suggestive POV, pefect colors and sharpness! And I like the horizontal crop.
Thank for sharing,
Chiaretta

I like this polarized sky, almost black.
It perfectly fit with the brown harshed lndscape and the glacier.
Stefano

Surreal phot - the black of the sky and the daylight on the landscape makes me feel I am looking at mars.

Tracey

Perfect representation of the plateau - and as Sharee has already said - the plqce looks really out of the world.
