The mountain, Chamlang in the Nepalese Himalayas, near Makalu is depicted in this print of my painting. It lies in the southern section of the Mahalangur subrange of the Himalayas. Chamlang has an elevation of 7,319 metres (24,012 ft). The mountain is wreathed in ring of clouds giving it an other worldly presence and majestic beauty. Chamblang has many mysteries associated with it, but the most well know is when Reinhold Messner, one of the world’s foremost top mountaineers, said he watched a UFO “the size of a full moon” for nearly three hours whilst climbing in the Chamlang. He said he spotted the UFO as it drifted south into Nepal from Tibet over the mighty snow-capped mountains. The mountain is painted from camp 2 on Mera Peak 6,476m which Alexander climbed in 2014. This painting is part of a larger group of works which Alex made in response to his expedition to the Barun Valey region of Nepal to Climb Baruntse 7,129 m in 2014. This print is made entirely from reference images Alexander Heaton made and photographed.
