How many times can I count Mt Blanc? ;)
That got me dredging my distant memory from when I used to love Mt Blanc  :)
For me I think it's:
Gouter ridge up and down
Gouter ridge then traverse to midi
via Mt Maudit Kuffner ridge
Brenva spur
Brenva spur again
Route Major
Innominata ridge
Central Pillar of Freney

I’ve only climbed on 5 of them.

Reminds me that the autumn before last I put a fair bit of work into shooting a huge Panorama of Froggatt, Curbar and Baslow Edges but didn’t stump up the £186 required for the software to create a version that didn’t have a “free trial version” watermark all over it before I forgot all about it. It was pretty epic iirc and I should buy that software.

I'm sure there are excellent astrophotography software packages for stitching. I did some big composites in Hugin a decade ago. It took some time to learn but worked fine (I shot with a lens having almost perfectly flat field, so it should not be very computational expensive anyway).

Very cool!

Without double counting, 21 for me. Haven't made it to Hoy or Kalymnos yet!

Surprised to see the Three Sisters on there, it was my garden backdrop for a few years.

A disappointing 16 15 on a strictly accounted basis.

However, were some trees removed, my current home would be visible in one of these images. Worth a bonus point?
