Landscape Photography in Zanskar Himalayas, where snow peaks reach to stars - http://www.darter.in/landscape-photography-zanskar-snow-peaks-reach-stars/

"The camping days have interesting schedules. The group comes alive only in the evening, when the sun is inching towards the horizon and shines amazing light on the mountain peaks. After dark, and after dinner, it’s time again to spread the tripod and photograph the stars decorating the snow-peaks. Depending on our energies, we would often stay up late into the night, often shooting the twinkling stars and sometimes even star trails and time lapses. Some people would even wake up in the middle of the night to find the galaxies and star-dust perfectly positioned over the mountains. Again, we would wake up early in the morning for sunrise.

When would we sleep, you may ask. That’s what the day time was for. Our journeys between camps were short and easy, and there was plenty of time during the day and not a great deal to shoot. Post lunch siestas extended until the sunset hour approached, and the activity would suddenly pick up in the group. Those are fun filled days!"
