Wildlife adventures and beautiful scenery are all well and good, but people give a place its heart and soul. It is the photographs of the men, women, and especially children I interacted with that are the best reflection of the warmth and friendliness I love most about Nepal.
What a country of beautiful faces.
A country of diversity.
Of shy smiles.
And little boys wanting to play with the big kids. (Photo courtesy of Ash)
And just a little bit of camera-shyness.
It is a country filled with playfulness.
And amateur photographers. (Video also courtesy of Ash. Thanks Ash!)And distinguished gentlemen.
Nepal is a country of eager models.
A place where everyone wants to join the fun.
A place where everyone is welcome.

Thank you so much for your comments everyone. I'm so glad I had a chance to bring a little of my trip home and share it with you, especially those children, they were so precious!
i absolutely love the portraits, you capture them so well. and i love that the children are so natural in front of the camera, no self conscious at all!
I've heard so many good things about Nepal but my friends are never the photographer-type of traveller. These are so so real, and the children are really beautiful. I was never such a kid. They're like little people with stories in their eyes.
All those beautiful faces! The little girl in the second photo is stunning...a natural beauty.
Angry Asian - Thank you! These children really were naturals, such open interest and curiosity.
