but of course not the first car doing the bartang.
i know some people (also from poland) that has done the valley during last years - 3 cars last year, and this year also 3 (including my and my friend's, met in khorog, we travelled together for 3 days; and another friend one month earlier). maybe there were more other cars, but i don't know. it was a very dry year (and the previous too), so hapilly we could travel acroos the valley.
i could say - the valley allowed us to travel.

Excellent photos with very nice composition and very nice metering to boot! - the photographer in me asks what setup you are using?
I am kinda drawn between UK to Africa or UK to Magadan, your images have put a few more ticks in the camp of the latter!!!
Cheers!

manual all the time.
i was educated (myself, i mean autodidact, long time ago) mostly on diapositive films (and still using analog camera parallel with digital - heh, and still i have no digital lenses, only analog). it is a bit expensive material, so you cannot try, and try, and try again as you can on digital camera... :)

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
