I have a friend who was in Khatmandu and didn't like it at all. He wasn't looking.

Wonderful, wonderful work.

Your photos are great, and I like your stories too, adds background and context to the shots. Your colour medium format stuff is maybe my favourite, but it's all great.

Thanks, IMHO, I always want to leave more space/blanket for my pic, makes pics more implicit looking, then people can imagine it by any way. of course I will provide the necessary info for them, thanks again for your attention!

Looks like you have had a great trip and captured some excellent images. However it is sad to see what Kathmandu has become.

I first was there in 1985, looks identical, except perhaps less westerners now---but that may be the shots.

A friend who has been in and out of nepal countless times and guided on all the rivers once told me: rule number one of nepal travel: get the hell out of Katmandu.

Great shots---I prefer the color, just because of the difficulty factor 🙂

Running childhood is superb, Bhaktapur also appears identical as 80s and 90s. Most haunting urban scape I ever saw in 45 countries.

I have a friend who was in Khatmandu and didn't like it at all. He wasn't looking.

Or maybe he was. Anyone who is not disturbed by Katmandu is severerly desenseitized. But it's famous for sucking travelers in for weeks or more. I'll take the counrtyside, myself, the peaks, the terraces, the villages, and the rivers. Also unmatched anywhere on earth.

Thanks, and the cityscape of Bhaktapur also haunting me a lot until now...

There are alot of very good photos floating around on the internet especially RFF, but very few that reach the level of excellent of amazing. These defineately reach that level. I would be proud to have taken any one of these never mind all of them

 

[cambolt]

That has probably got to be the most amazing set of photos I have ever seen outside of a book or art gallery

Thanks for so much praise, although there is still a big gap btw mines and the "excellent" works, I'm very happy to hear this🙂

The sunshine in the noon is so strong that it is still a little over-contrast whatever I done...
