Himalaya Mountains, Nepal, shot from airplane
Measured by height above sea level, the Himalaya Mountains are the highest in the world. Everest, its summit measuring 8,850 meters (29,035 feet) ASL, is the highest of them all — though I’m fairly sure it’s not in this photo, given that we were flying west from Kathmandu to Pokhara. This region is often called “the roof of the world”, which I am shamelessly morphing into “top of the world”.
Becky is back with her squares, and for April the theme is “top“.
Wow!

I’d love to see it again, with the camera I have now! So many amazing places and such bad cameras.

Great shot. I have only ever flown anywhere near these mountains during nighttime.
