Everest from Rongbuk Tibet

The mighty North Face of Everest from Rongbuk Tibet

The classic view of the mighty north face of Everest, towering above the Rongbuk Glacier in Tibet. Everest is approximately five miles from the viewpoint which was beside the old Rongbuk Monastery, and the image was captured in late afternoon when there was strong directional light just before the sun began to set.
