Abstract

Repeat photography reveals changes in Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest) National Park and Buffer Zone – a microcosm of the Himalayas. The principal author re-took historical photographs from the same viewpoints, illustrating cultural landscape change and persistence over 50 years. The photographs were then used as a basis for interviews with local people. The research also shed light on socio-economic change, particularly in land cover. It proved that repeat photography can rapidly provide important insights into landscape change patterns, cause, and management options.
