5000kms and 12 Passes, a 20 day wild wild ride to the roof of the world!

EssYouWe · 1st November 2009, 19:41

I just spent the whole day going through this thread.

Just think of the man hours you have wasted Tanveer!

I'll state the obvious, you are awesome!

Every log you put up here inspires me to go check the place out for myself... Go check the pass that beat you out.

I need to put Ladakh's name to the test.

Cheers to one helluva trip bro!

Thanks EssYouWe(SUV I guess). It sure was the trip of a lifetime!

The journey begins again!

deky · 20th November 2009, 13:53

Hi Tanveer, Is it possible to post the PP'ed pic along with the original?

Thanks, Regards!!

tsk1979 · 20th November 2009, 13:55

@sudev, yup it does!
@deky, its going to be very tough as the file names of reprocessed pics are very different. Some pics are obvious, but some major changes!

tsk1979 · 20th November 2009, 14:22

Many of the reprocessed shots are from Pangong. And why not, its an amazing sight, processing or no processing

Really great processing! You guys are absolute geniuses!

Hats off to Rudra sir and you.

amitk26 · 20th November 2009, 15:08

Wonderful PP , I did not ask this before what is your photo gear.

MileCruncher · 20th November 2009, 15:13

Awesome shots, especially 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th.

Can I make them my desktop wallpaper ?
