Little Jharkot Photo

Photographer’s Note

The most photographed village during my last trip to Nepal, 20 days trekking around Annapurna, due to the unique location.

Jharkot at 3500m is only 200m lower than Muktinath, less commercial and the accommodation is cheaper there.

Photo taken in the afternoon, for just in case we're getting a cloudy day next morning. ( It was cloudy the next morning )

The light on the roofs in this village, the bright green of the meadows: it is in a fine contrast to the grey and brown colours of the mountains surrounding them.
You depicted that atmosphere in a nice way!

Hello Artesia

Good sharpness & a superb high pov. I have been to Nepal several times, including Pokhara, & this is a good capture of the village, clinging precariously to the hillside. Tfs!

ciao Artesia,
entro per la prima volta nella tua galleria e vedo bellissime foto come questa di un paese dagli scorci unici e incantevoli.
Buona l'inquadratura su questo villaggio arroccato tra le montagne con un'ottima luce e colori naturali.
