Artwork!

Just my cynical jokey take on modern tourism and the impact on our wild spaces...

Everest summit 1953 - Edmund Hillary and Tensing Norgay

Everest summit 2019

Anyone else got any artwork to post?

    I wonder if the same artist has done one for 2059?!

    Here is some Scott Naismith. His work invokes some sort of emotion within me but i think its because its impressionist rather than realist. He paints Scottish sea and landscapes. I was lucky to visit the Western Isles in 2017. His paintings conjure the feelings i had while in this wild landscape far more than looking at any photographs.

    Beautiful.  I'd like a copy of that.

    2059?  By then, there'll probably be a casino up there.  The rarefied atmosphere will probably get people to spend more at the tables.

    Or a 'Himalayan Experience' theme park, maybe.  You can just imagine what kind of roller-coaster they'd have...
