But to be fair, the photographer was a bit tired. He’d walked 42 kilometres through the high mountains, taking four whole days to reach the ideal viewpoint for this shot.

And he wasn’t using flimsy lightweight kit, either. Ten kilogrammes of camera gear can weigh awful heavy after a 42K footslog like that!
Anyhow, here’s the big picture. See if you can spot the three likely lads who are in the close up picture above.
If you want to see this image really and truly mahoosively big, go here to Scott Howard Photography, and gawp at the picture that consists of four hundred and four individual photos, all stitched together into a 1500 MegaPixels (approx 60,000 x 26,000 pixels) mosaic that needed approximately 11 hours to render into a 13.5 gigabyte file.
For once, you probably won’t mind the horrible and normally intrusive Zoomify interface in your face.
