The Tibetan night sky was captured in these beautiful images showing the stunning buildings and statues in the Himalayan mountains.

The senior project engineer was able to take amazingly clear images thanks to the limited amount of pollution at the 4,500-foot (1371m) altitude. (Photo by Grey Chow/Caters News Agency)
