In the heart of the Himalayas, the Leh-Manali Road took us through 485 km of high altitude mountains - crossing several passes above 4000 and 5000 meters and the highest of all is the Taglang La pass, 5328 meters high. I'll never forget this ride! The road is often a rough mountain trail. The landscape is unique and you can feel, breathe and touch this remote world of high altitude and wilderness.

The only humans I met during my two-days-long trip is a couple of shepards in search of some grass in the middle of that glorious nothing.

    great vibe, difference in textures and tones. I like the slightly off-camber feel too.

    Wow! azt hiszem írhatok magyarul... nekem elsőre egy romániai emlékemet juttatta eszembe a kép, persze ez teljesen máshol van, de hasonló hangulatú:) Nagyon jóó:) (my vote!)
