Land of Giants

I spent almost a month in the Himalayas of Nepal this past April. It included lots of hiking, dal bhat, and expansive views of some of the tallest mountains on Earth. I actually found it to be a really tough area to photograph. I only came back with a few images, maybe 2-3. But, it was a great experience and it was pretty amazing to see Everest for the first time. I did get altitude sickness, only for a day, but wow it knocked me out. The Lukla airport was crazy too, I see why they call it the most dangerous in the world. As I was about to board my return flight to Kathmandu a plane went off the runway and collided with a helicopter killing 3 people. I felt lucky to safely make it back after that. Weather cut part of the trip off so I was able to spend about 5 nights in this area. I waited and waited for decent conditions and got a really awesome sunset. Ama Dablam has to be one of the most scenic peaks in the world.
