Annapurna, Everest, Helambu & Langtang Hardcover – Abridged, January 1, 2015
by
Yuyutsu RD Sharma
(Author)
“To do justice to the landscapes and peoples of the highest mountains in the world requires a sensitivity and skill not given to all of us. Andreas Stimm and Yuyutsu R. D. Sharma have succeeded, in this trilogy of photographs and poems, in bringing to life an extraordinary region in all its striking beauty and natural harmony. The unique combination of their photographic and poetic skills succeeds in laying bare the very soul of the Himalayas, the smiling warmth of its inhabitants and its dramatically beautiful peaks and valleys. Each page transports you to a magical and timeless world which, alas, is condemned slowly to disappear as modernization, new roads, and environmental degradation combine to depopulate these remote areas.” His Excellency Mr. Keith George Bloomfield Former British Ambassador to Nepal

Great experiences destroyed by a wrongly chosen form factor for the Book
Reviewed in India on February 2, 2023
This is actually a classic example of great experiences and brilliant photographs completely destroyed by a poorly chosen form factor for a book like this. When anyone says Hasselblad XPan, the first things that come to mind are beautiful panoramas. The form factor of this book has the dimensions of an Indian Postcard i.e. roughly 15cm x 10cm (I wish Amazon had mentioned the book dimensions to me. I wouldn't have made this purchase then). Many of the panoramic photographs either spread across two pages or compressed to fit into the smaller than post card size allowing for descriptions. A book of this size neither does justice to the photographer, the poet, the Hasselblad Xpan nor the images. What could've been an otherwise brilliant panaromic extravaganza is reduced to a sad collage of substandard postcard size photographs. I'm sorry; but a book that I wanted to love turned out to be an utter disappointment due to a wrong choice of the form factor chosen by this publisher.
