Temperature was not a problem. The camera I used was my father's Contax -- believe it was 1952 model. Absolutely superb machine. Unfortunately, some nasty person whom I befriended some years later stole it from me. I miss that camera and all its memories to this day. ............ Lilia
Thank you for posting as it brings back wonderful memories of climbing Anapurna in my youth. I look at your photo and remember the thrill and exhilaration, crossing on wooden boards between 2 mountains with a huge drop down looking at icy rivers below. The comraderie of our group holding their breath as we crossed step by step. 25,000 to 26,000 feet high. We all held our breath watching our newly acquainted friends, exhilarated, praying, hoping that all would be successful. Thank G-d it was. What had been strangers a few days before became best friends. I still relish the experience as one of the best ever! Kind regards comrades...........Lilia
This image was sitting in the post-processing que for the last two years - but when I dusted the file off I was reminded of the "special" natural of the summicron lenses- hard to explain really but there is something about the way it draws light when you imaging large heroic subject matter -
