I visit here every year, and pretty much every year I take a photo of Kumari. This time the shoot escalated a little! This old temple had just been renovated and gave us a wonderful glow as morning sun streamed through the lattice work.⁠ I love a little serendipity.<br/>⁠<br/>ewenbell.com/tashi⁠<br/>⁠<br/>#TheJoyOfTashi #Lumix #LumixS1RII<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/photog/media_attachments/files/114/357/311/389/984/119/original/62a8b83ee379fe16.jpg"> <br/> 2025-04-18T05:29:26Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsxr3k7llvghyr4adf8zhpcul9p44y4h8623kvevsu8jzxw7t3d7tszyrc5gwrrj2mu9l6xz5uuyrxq647w79x665ntnyz7tfmuzcwtupqp23c5fv6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdn0tkh6qgjcf4sr8dpeu4r98chrzd86rdztv59d6eth8ghzkvcnq5p0s7f'>nevent1q…0s7f</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Tashi is a very shy person, so this little moment was really special. He had been taking pictures of the wide scene with me for a while, but decided he needed to go up to these Newari ladies and ask to take their picture. Up close. Very proud of you Tashi!⁠<br/><br/><a href="https://ewenbell.com/joy">https://ewenbell.com/joy</a><br/>#TheJoyOfTashi #Photography #Lumix<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/photog/media_attachments/files/114/353/408/785/274/570/original/d59ee3c261d0f0c1.jpg"> <br/> 2025-04-17T12:56:18Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsg5mgwm5ltgv3l3ud8kwd7jycreena02w7cyxtc8kzgecenhwye7qzyrc5gwrrj2mu9l6xz5uuyrxq647w79x665ntnyz7tfmuzcwtupqp2nyljt3 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqgpdlkeg7u7cmhc9tex084xmuvh9uhwjt439k97826yzyh4ugqaqq4fjnw'>nevent1q…fjnw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thanks.
