16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Balanced cairn overseeing the Himalayas

This perfectly imperfect cairn was captured around 5000m above sea-level whilst I was a journey trekking through the Himalayas. The stack balanced carefully at the edge of the mountainside, overlooking a vertiginous drop down.
