Star trails over Holy Mountains

In the northwestern part of Yunnan China, near Tibet, lies a range of mountains known as the Meili Snow Mountains, or the Prince Mountains. It is one of the holiest mountains of Tibetans, and its an awesome sight. At night, when the stars filled the sky, it is even more so. With over 40min of exposure, the star trails gives a out of this world look!
