Being here on a d810 (or something similar) is landscape photography paradise.
I'll lead a trip in October 2017 if anyone is interested. It won't be for the meek, or faint of foot. PM me if you're interested in talking about it.
The only way to see some of the most beautiful places in the world is to get out there on your own two feet, grit your teeth, put it all on the line, and put one foot in front of the other. Sometimes this is the only way to get anything done in the world.
People climb these mountains, perhaps one day I'll decide to start climbing these mountains. For now I'm content to view them from a distance in all their majestic fury, pushing clouds and wind around like a big bully in the sky. Creating their own weather, and majestically elevating over 8,000 meters into the sky. The air is thin up here, and health issues can quickly become deadly.
There have been people living here for thousands of years. A rural beautiful life at the foot of elevated giants. Can you blame them? They look out their windows with a view of this type of elevated beauty. It's no wonder it's the center of the world for monks and spiritual practice.
