Three views of Miancimu, Meili Snow Mountain massif, Yunnan, China

Miancimu (or Mianzimu) is the second-highest, and probably most photogenic, peak in the Meili Snow Mountain massif, on the border of Yunnan and Tibet. It is part of the Three Parallel Rivers UNESCO site, where the three rivers Mekong, Salween and Yangtze run parallel to each other in very close proximity.

All taken with the Sony A7r and Sigma 120-300.

1) In the moonlight, from the village of Upper Yubeng. 22-minute exposure time.

2) During sunrise, from Feilaisi, on the other side of the Mekong Valley. 127 stacked exposures taken from the beginning of twilight until sunrise, with gradually-shortening exposure times (beginning at 30 seconds and finishing at 1/60 second) to account for the changing light.

3) Emerging from the clouds at sunrise, from halfway between Upper and Lower Yubeng villages.
