Dhaulagiri, seventh-highest peak in the world (26,794 ft/8167 m), dominates the skyline in this image taken by the Expedition 1 crew from the International Space Station using a high-magnification lens. Although it looks like a view from a high-altitude airplane, the photograph was taken out of the window of the Space Station from an orbital altitude of 200 nautical miles (370 km).
The pic was taken with a Kodak DCS460 Electronic Still Camera, which is a tad more than your standard 35 mm camera, with an 800 mm focal length.
