Chomolungma - A Mountain Called Everest:
In 1983, Bill Thompson was granted permission to photograph Mt. Everest from above. Sponsored by National Geographic and Boston Museum of Science, some of the first complete aerial photography of Mt. Everest took place. Flying in a tiny Pilatus Porter, with the door wide open and camera glued to his face, Bill managed to take thousands of photographs of the highest mountain on earth. This Everest photograph is an aerial image that was included in the 100 Year Anniversary issue of the Magazine, November 1988. To date the trip that shot this image is the only one to take a complete set of aerial images of Mount Everest.
