I had a wonderful 12 days trekking on the Tibetan Plateau (Yunnan, China) in December, meeting many ethnic Tibetans (over 80% of the people in this region are Tibetans) and enjoying their language, food and culture. It's also scenicly stunning and great hiking !
This is a panorama (I forget off hand how many shots, 5-7), taken near sunrise, of the Mei Li Snow Mountains (up to 5,600+m or around 18,500ft) which remain undefeated despite numerous attempts over the years to climb them (tragically resulting in many deaths, including 19 people on one occasion in 1991 by a joint Japanese/Chinese expedition), it is notorious for its many avalanches and high ice walls and the Chinese Govt. have now banned climbing it, for safety as well as on religious grounds (it is one of the most holy of Buddhist mountains, second only to Kailash, and Buddhists have always very strongly objected to people attempting to summit it).
Original A7r (still my favourite landscape camera) and Voigtlander 35/1.7 @ if I remember correctly, f2.

Going through my Death Valley pics from back in November I found one that I missed on my first pass through. I like this one better than the one I originally choose and processed. This was when the Sunrise was just at the peak of color and as I remember I frantically changed lenses to get that moment.

Evaluating the Sigma 100-400 Contemporary. Taking some test shots of the squirrels harvesting peanuts from the front lawn.
Odd thing - the image uploaded to Flickr isn't nearly as sharp as the one in LR.
Trying a direct upload instead.
- Edit: image here also seems to lack applied sharpening, and is a bit softer than my local copy. Hmmm
I also often find a regrettable loss of sharpness when I upload an image, presumably from the downsizing algorithms that we use to make the image fit the constraints. Some images altogether lose their impact. An image that depends on microcontrast and small details in juxtaposition and contrast to each other especially suffers. Sometimes it really looks like half of the image is missing, which is in fact literally the case (or more than half actually).
There may be ways of processing an image for downsizing and uploading that makes this less of a loss and less of a problem, but I haven't discovered it yet.

Me, I much prefer the first one Ronny, seems to have a darker mood which suits the landscape.
