In 2020 March I trekked from Kathmandu all the way to the Langtang Valley north of Kathmandu. It was during the beginning of the Korona craze and very few trekkers on route. This picture was taken at sunset in the village of Shin Gompa - not yet in the Langtang valley, but on the route there.
The picture is a panoramic composite of several pictures I took at the same time in the late afternoon of 17th March 2020. The composite pictures and the final image have been enhanced in Lightroom, Photoshop and Topaz.
After a difficult ascent finally the frozen Gosainkund lake and the holy village insight. Deep snow made it harder than anticipated.
On the way to Dhunche - at this time there were no roads in this region, only walking tracks.
