My picture in the Himalayan Museum
I have already taken photographs several times at Nepal's first and for a long time only PET recycling plant. The symbolic image above is one of my favorite photos because it tells a story in one frame: the starting material, the gloves that symbolize the recycling work, and the finished recycled granules.
Prakash Barati, the head of Himalayan Life Plastics, has now sent me two pictures showing that this picture is in Himalayan Museum and Sustainable Park in Syangboche was used to illustrate the recycling process on the way to Everest Base Camp. In addition, Himalayan Life has placed the photo on a booklet that they are handing over to the staff. It's cool that one of my pictures is taking such a trip.
A small note for those interested in photography: I took the picture with the Leica SL and the Vario Elmarit 2.8-4.0/24-90 mm.
