Nanda Devi in the Morning Light

Taken from some considerable distance in poor light conditions (hence the noise), this is India's most gorgeous Himalayan peak and second highest after Kanchenjunga. Mt. Nanda Devi is worshipped all over the Kumaon region as the "Mother Goddess" and many a folklore has been told about her. The Main peak to the left (she has twin peaks) is the 23rd highest peak in the world. The lower peak to the right is Nanda Devi East.
