One of my personal favorites as it represents almost four weeks of hard work to get the shot. Our sherpas in the frame were waiting patiently for me while taking a 'photo' break to catch my breath a short distance from summit of Chhukung Ri (5546m or 18200ft) on the right. The incredible spire of Ama Dablam (6856m) rising above the cloud filled valley in the background. Only half the oxygen available at 5000m when compared to sea level. Everest Region, Nepalese Himalayas, Nepal. Shot on Fuji Velvia slide film.

As I say in the post all the pictures I post are my photos. You seem to post this same comment just to spam people and then have up-votes onto the comment. Perhaps read the post first before just cut and pasting.

on my comment, may be they all respect me.

It is clear you did not even read the post with your question. So please don't just cut and paste the same question over and over again its an insult and nothing more than spam.

Unbelievable to what "heights" you are pushing yourself to get an amazing shot 🙂
An entire adventure story of persistence and hardship must lie behind this image. I would like to see more pictures of what must have been a trip of a lifetime of yours!

Nepal is my favorite country which I happily visit again. I've only been in Annapurna area. I am planning to go to the Everest area next. Is this part of the trek to Everest base camp or it is side trek? Great shot! :)

This is a side trek to base camp. It is up towards island peak base camp if you google that .

What an incredible landscape and the sheer force it took for those mountains to be there much like your journey to the top, is spectacular. Have always wanted to visit Nepal
