    The first time that the great Himalaya, stretching 3000km from Bhutan to Afghanistan, had been photographed. Considering that several years were spent at extreme altitude in what was then a very remote part of the world with virtually none of the creature comforts that are taken for granted today, it stands as one of the greatest landscape photography achievements of all time.

    His series depicting women flying with birds remind me of Alice and Wonderland, and have erotic - if sublimated - overtones.
