These images were taken on a 10 day photo trip to Sichuan, a province in Southwest China which borders on Tibet.
The capital is Chengdu, home of the panda's.
Sichuan is a beautiful mountainous province with spectacular scenery.
We visited many Tibetan villages where people dress in their traditional colorful outfits.
Some of the places I visited are Hailuogou Glacier,
Mount Siguniang (Four  Girls Mountain),  Jiuzhaigou National Park, Huanglong National Park,  Minya Konka (Mount Gongga).
The elevation of some of those parks was around 15,000 ft.
