Wow, what a great capture. Love that you were able to capture these clouds like this, as if a spotlight is shining on both the mountain and the monastery. Very spiritual feel to this one. Thanks for sharing!

Your photos are always a pleasure for the eyes.
Here the monastery was blessed by the sunrays. and the Ama Dablam appears as a God in the clouds.
