In 2013 I was fortunate to trek the rarely visited Dolpo region of Nepal. It was the trip of a lifetime, but sometimes luck strikes twice. I was able to return this fall with another great group and capture the experience again. Many new editions will be released at the Kalākora Gallery over the coming year, but here are 3 images that I couldn't wait to share here in small format.

The first image with the girl in the blue scarf was taken in the Saldang monastery (Upper Dolpo). We had just received a tour with the girl's grandfather, Dhandup Lama. (If you've visited the gallery, you've seen his image hanging in the main room.) As everyone left the building I lingered for a moment near the exit. The light was so amazing that I couldn't ignore it. I'm glad that I didn't.

The second image of the children in bright scarves wasn't taken in the Dolpo region, but on our exit through Kathmandu. The young Brahmins from India were in training at the Pashupatinath Temple. Even though they were young, they walked with authority and had great presence.

The third image was taken in a schoolroom in Komas, one of the northernmost villages in Upper Dolpo. ​This young man was in the 5th Grade, which is the highest level offered in the remote area. If he wants to continue his education he must leave his community and family to complete his studies in Kathmandu.
