nepal-1



Some friends are going to Nepal, thought to
post some shots for them of my trip there..
like this door, notable for the cutout metal
animals on the top half - did I see them at the time?
So much to see !




Sure, it was dusty, dirty, etc, but the
stronger memories are of vivid details,
the patina of age (& sometimes animal products)
the people kind despite an excess 
of tourists for so long




Fabulous carving in wood, stone, metal,
& still craftsmen who practice the skills.
