Who’s Back There? – Barbot, Nepal

Going to villages that are off the tourist trail in Nepal are the most rewarding to me.  So when the principle of the school I was volunteer teaching at invited me on a 4 hour hike (actually it took 7 hrs) to his village of Barbot for the weekend – I said yes!  Barbot was perched high on a mountain and full of amazing scenery and people to photograph.  What made it better was my personal ‘guide’ and friend who took me around the village and surrounding areas providing me access to great photography opportunities.

This young mother and son had just left the local market when I was able to capture them.  I think the young boy was as curious about me as I was about him!
