Probably the world’s most beautiful place. Untouched since thousands of years. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S.

What a strikingly huge panorama you captured in your photos. For a city dweller like me it is strange to see the shadow of an entire cloud traced out on the landscape. No wonder Tibetans are so peaceful … you can see everyone coming for hours before they actually get to you. By the time you actually greet someone you’ve probably had time to forgive them twelve times over for everything they could possibly have done. In the city on the other hand … new faces pop out of a crowd and remain in your sight for only the few seconds it takes to smile or to scowl then to disappear back into anonymity. But this landscape where you can see forever could have its downsides. I could imagine the unbearable and growing terror and the sense of inevitability that ordinary Tibetans would have felt at seeing Mongol warriors slowly approaching from a distance of days away. I wonder if growing up in a place where you can see forever encourages one to believe in fate … after all … when you can see so far then everything that is going to happen shows itself long before it does happen.

Thanks for your comment Andy. FYI the photos are not taken by myself, they are taken by reurinkjan, released under a Creative Common License. Full credit should be given to him.
