Hi,
.

Here is an astro-landscape from the Dolpo region in Nepal. Taken from a high camp at 4,900m, 12 x 30" with astrotracer, stacked with Sequator. The mountain is the Dhaulagiri II at 7,751m

The scale of the himalayas is daunting to all but those fit enough . It is a pity that I am too old to grow up to be just like you . This photo is very impressive .
