Unreal detail! Incredible number of tents. I really like the coloured bands of rock high up.... but that icefall just looks crazy

I seen this image a couple of days ago, but never noticed any tents.

I can see them now, about 20 odd? I can see them slap bang in the middle of the image, between the mountians joining at the ice flow, anyone see any different one?

When I originally saw the title I thought it was going to be a picture of me trailing through the forest on Sunday taking photos whilst trying to look for my tent. Lol

How did I manage to find 4 tents in that massive area and somehow manage to miss out the thousands of obvious ones?

You can see the line of climbers spread out across the snowfield and making their way up to (or down from) the higher camp.  There are also climbers in the shadows to the left of the top of the Khumbu icefall and another group of four about a third of the way up on the left hand side of the icefall on the flatter snow.  There is a single climber below and to the left of them, he looks cool as he is just in mid-stride.

You can tell I wasted some time on this yesterday!
