travel photography - boy at temple in Kathmandu, Nepal

This is a monochrome version of a scan of a color photo taken and printed in 1995.

I have traveled to different countries on this beautiful earth, but none made as much of an impression on me as Nepal. Maybe it was because it was my first journey outside of Europe, a real culture shock - the material poverty on the one hand and the spiritual richness on the other. It was transformational on my view of life. This photo is very much representative for my life ever since: the mystical as the practical.

The color scan can be viewed in the Kathmandu series on my website.
