Very nice work - thanks for sharing them with us. It looks like you got really involved with the locals, and no sign of anyone shouting "Privacy!".

These show a good use of both B&W and colour. Are the B&W shots converted from colour? Not a criticism, but the B&W shots seem to be a bit under-exposed (lacking shadow detail) and I was wondering if that has come from the conversion.

It must have been a memorable trip!

yes the nepalese are quite open to being photographed in comparison with tibetans, only over tuther side of mountains, and I was working for an organisation over there so most of the people that lived directly around me got used to my appearance.

p.s. they are conversions, some admitedly bad, but I think I can blame the extremely harsh mountain light ina few.
