shot from the Pansang Bhanyang, the highest pass on the Ganesh Himal Trek. Amazing view on the mountains, especially with the clouds below.

This was one of the moment where you just forget the cold and watch...admire...and take some shots of course!

Amazing shot! I like the mountain panorama in this, so magestic. The clouds coming up the valley are so typical, as are those cobalt blue skies. One of the best shots I've seen of Nepal, and it really reminds me of my trip there.

Hi Arnoud. What a beautiful shot you have here. The perspective is amazing and the colours at this time of the day you captured nicely.

Hi Arnoud,

Very nice light on the mountains here. The people on the picture make it real. Pictures of that landscape alone are to abstract for people that have never been in such beautiful environment. TFS, Gilbert

Majestic shot Arnoud...feels like "top of the world" with the clouds at feet level, like waves against the dark foreground. The snowy peaks against the blue sky provide fascinating view

What an amazing shot!
The colors are simply unbelievable and the composition is flawless.
I din't know whether I am seeing wrong, but it seems that the picture is just slightly tilted to the left. The people are not quite standing right up. But that's just a little detail. Although it does give a slight sense of falling to the left.
I adore how you've captured these people taking pictures of something we do not quite see but that we can imagine being absolutely wonderful and brilliant!
Wow, is all I have to say :D

Thanks for sharing such a precious moment!

Hi Arnoud,

wow, amazing breathtaking landscape, beautiful colours and light...a real wow...like looking on Mordor ;-)...well done!

Have a nice day, Ivana

Hallo Arnoud,
In prachtig licht gevangen opname.
Een nog wijdser blik had nog meer impact gekregen door links nog meer beeld te tonen, of had je dan teveel problemen met het tegenlicht?
Ondanks dat vind ik dit een sterke plaat, mede door de mensen die je in het frame hebt geplaatst.
Prima werk..!!
Groet, Henk
