Amir from ?, Iran

One of the mightiest mountain chains in the world. You are one lucky man to have seen it. Beautiful shot

@Amir: Thankyou Amir, it was a stunning place to be. This mountain is 21,492 feet high (6551 meters) , and un-named on my maps, although it is close to the village of Mastuj, and about 50 miles north of Chitral. Locals called it 'Buni Gol'. With a friend, I climbed up to about 18 or 19,000 feet, but we didn't have the gear to go any higher.

This is remarkable. The blue in the sky is beautiful and of course the moon is wonderful as well. But it's the black scarp that runs across the bottom that frames it all and that makes this picture for me. Thanks for sharing.
