Yoshikazu Shirakawa spent four hazardous and adventure-packed years photographing the Himalayas. In exquisite and dramatic full-page and double-page photographs, he shows us the extraordinarily diverse effects of light at different times of day and the highly varied terrain. We see the subtle colours of dawn, sunset and twilight; the brilliance of noon; the clouds, mists, blizzards and thunderstorms swirling around the peaks; mountain lakes set like jewels in rocky valleys; snow and ice glittering like crystals; unusually green and fertile valleys. The book is divided into four parts, each devoted to a major sector of the mountains: the Nepal, Punjab, and Sikkim Himalayas, and the Hindu Kush range. An essay by Kyuya Fukada discusses the geological evolution, history and people of the Himalayas.
