pakistan panoramas Crossing the Darkot Glacier (please see larger)

The way over the Darkot pass (4700 m) is the shortest way from the Boroghil valley to the Northern Areas of Pakistan. Thanks to the help of the yaks and the yak men we were able to cross the pass in one long day.

Thank you very much.

Good shot. I like the way everything flows from right to left like even the mountains themselves are helping the group to push on.

Original and well done. Regards!

Eye and luckVery good, Karl! You need some eye for a photo like this, but some luck too: look at how the line of the mountains in the back follows the line of the travellers.

your guess is right. I was riding the middle one, like a Harley Davidson of the mountains...

Forward tending mountains - living nature!

Daily, if you knew what comes behind... By the way a fan has already copied part of ym bio-muesil. Karl

What a wonderful image. There is no sense talking about all the technical stuff...this picture is photography personified...just absolutely First Class...Bert

Well seen, well captured, and well done. Perhaps high speed HDR (since they are moving) would be a good try in such a situation. I enjoyed the image.

Superb!

I love good mountain photography, and this is certainly that!

Ever since I have seen this image I have been dreaming of crossing the place in the same manner. Truly inspirational work.

Excellent capture.

Karl, congratulations.

 

If something is to be rated 7/7 this is the one.

Very beautiful shot.. how beautifull mountains and people.
