Catching the Mountain Light: A Himalayan Winter Photobook
Himalayan mountain photographs from Intiaz Mahmud’s 2020 winter expedition in Nepal: blue light, falling snow and ridges in black and white.

Looking between the milestones
These photographs are from my 2020 winter expedition. A ridge washed in blue light, a walk through falling snow, a mountain in black and white, and the view from inside a tent: four frames from the journey.
For now, the captions describe what is visible. I will add the places and stories behind the photographs later. Select any image to open a larger view.
