Himalaya Autumn (2015)
Himalayan Tibet
In a place few westerners have ever seen, and I knew, owing to logistical difficulties and permits, I would never get back to; my foremost goal was to capture the unique fall colors of the Kharta Valley in Tibet. Immersed in the middle of the highest 8000 meter peaks, the valley offers a one of a kind combination of autumn foliage below the glacier-clad summits. Here, after crashing through an extraordinary amount of neck-deep brush in the dark, I was able to render an image that captured both, with a small stream leading through the colorful bushes towards the peaks below Makalu, the world's 5th highest summit.
