Four friends on their day off
Manamaiju, Kathmandu, January 7th, 2003
On my way back from Manamaiju, I met these four students who were enjoying their day off.
They are, from left-to-right, Kamala, Sumitra, Roshni and Rojina—all from Shree Ganesh Himal Boarding School.
I wrote down the name of their school, and after a bit of looking a few days later, I finally found it and was able to give them their photo.
Now they are all 25 and 26, and I'm sure they are doing great things.

Friends laughing beneath a tree
Futung, Kathmandu, 2002
I found this group of friends sitting beneath a tree on the top of a Suess-esqe little hill (see panorama below). I asked if I could take their photo and they said yes, but the first photo I snapped, they all looked deadly serious. When I mimed my best impression of their serious faces, they burst into laughter and I took this second shot.

The tree where I took the photo is on the top of the little hill that, in the photo, is above and a little to the right of the little house-like building on the left. (click to see larger)
And here is a small version of that first photo that I described above.
