Sagaramatha Everest Region Panoramic from Nagarkot

Nagarkot, Nepal

This is a chopped panoramic, as opposed to a stitched one, so do note the loss of quality. However, interesting all the same:

Going from left to right you will come across a pointy cone-looking mountain (only its peak can be seen due to cloud cover, its actually in the center of the shot and appears to be the highest mounting in the photo), that is Choba Bhamare standing at 5970 meters. Continuing left you will pass by the peaks of Cho Oyu (8153 m), Gauri Shankar (7145 m), and Melungtse (7181 m). Now here are the big guys. On the extreme right the large snow covered mountain is Lindartsubugo (6690 m - note that the peak appears to be blocked due to bright sunlight), not very large; however, if you look to the mountain peak to the immediate right of Lindartsubugo that is the very summit of Everest (8848 m - clearly seen in the photo, notice that slightly lopsided pointed shape of the summit).
