Mountain Pictures and Maps - Himalaya and Andes.

The site is divided into the 6 main areas shown below. Use the tabs above to visit these pages or click the pictures. Clicking the banner anywhere on this site will bring you back to this page. Feel free to use any of my pictures as you wish - copyright will not be enforced.

Rendered Hills

This section is dedicated to graphic renderings of the real world. The areas covered are the same as the treks so to get a better impression of these regions look in this section as well.

Mountains

This section contains many photos of the great Himalayan giants, Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga and Annapurna, as well as photos of Ladakh, Zanskar and the Tian Shan mountains in Kyrgyzstan and the Huayhuash range in Peru, and Torres del Paine in Patagonia, Chile.

Australian Bush

Here we have pictures of the Australian Bush. I have been a keen bushwalker for almost 30 years and there are photos going back to the days when colour was a luxury I could not afford.

Exotic Places

This section is for photos that don't fit in with Mountains, such as ancient sites and interesting buildings.

Graphics

There are pictures and animations here generated with Lightwave, Bryce, Real3D and Terragen. Some places are real and some imaginary. There is some cross over between this section and Mountains as I have several renderings of mountains done with Terragen.

Family

This is a section of a personal nature that will be of limited interest to those not related to me. (You know who you are). I hope to build this area up later.
