That pic isn’t taken from base camp. You can’t see Everest from there. It looks like the pic was taken part way up Kalapatthar, the little hill behind Gorakshep that gives you amazing views of the mountain.

You are right, and it was between Gorakshep and the Base Camp. The time I went to Kalapatthar, the weather became cloudy. I went in mid-September and visited the base camp early in the morning and Kalapatthar at lunchtime before rushing to Lobuche. It was a 12 hours day.
