Check out the heart-shaped brake lights!

A few random shots out the car window in Kathmandu.

Maxine Stunning and beautiful! So they still use that same old rickety scaffolding that they used when I went there in '84! It is a wonder the buildings stay up. :))) They still sit on the ground to sell vegies, which is really sweet, but the cars are more modern. Never seen a letterbox like that before, really cute! Can't see any hippies - back when I went there were lots of left-over western hippies wandering around. I love Nepal!

DancingDolphin I just love these.... the place just seems to be teeming with activity!

rolpa This has got everything, including the smog! The chaos and activity of Kathmandu, including traffic and dirt. Great set.

Jannie The buildings in progress are kind of scarey. I don't think I really want to know how structurally sound they are or aren't! I love the letter box, and the bus in the last one.

wanderers The letter-box is my fave-does somebody use it ;-) ?

vollenda These are wonderful, Richard. I love the Kodak moment in #4. ;) And I like the angle and focus in #2 with the passers-by. Seeing their wares for sale and the traffic gives us some idea of what life is like there. The buses seem cheery?

sunshineand nice to see...thanks

jagungal I like 4, 6 & 7 best. Each captures something of the colour and chaos of Kathmandu — but each is also strongly organized visually. A very nice compilation Rich.

pattyb I love the tail lights!! #7 is awesome and the letter box is a classic. I didn't trust dropping my cards in there though! Great capture of the organized chaos!

photopoet The juxtaposition of the building and the people selling their vegetables captures the intersection of worlds. great set.
