Himalaya
This selection of photographs were taken in the Khumbu Himalaya where I have a strong family connection with many of the people and places there. Since the age of 13 I have travelled to the Khumbu for climbing, trekking and philanthropy both for work and pleasure. I have created an extensive collection of photographs covering mountaineering, nature, culture and religion in this unique high-alpine environment.
