Morning above Mount Kailash

Mount Kailash · Ngari Prefecture , Tibet

1996 · Kodachrome 35mm slide

From the collection Tibet, 1990s

I had been travelling for nine days when I first saw the peak from the east. The pilgrims around me prostrated; I photographed. It is the only time I have been there. The image is scanned from a single Kodachrome frame; the second frame was ruined in transit.
