VF, these latest pictures made me think of Wildman by Kate Bush.

The schoolmaster of Darjeeling said he saw you by the Tengboche Monastery.
You were playing in the snow. You were banging on the doors. You got up on the roof, Roof of the World.

A lot of people have advised you on this forum to come up with a photo book of your amazing pictures. It would be an excellent book without any doubt!:ok:
