Crack in the Sky, Kathmandu - Nepal A sudden storm over the tourist district of Kathmandu settled the dust and exhaust, played hide and seek with the power, and sent streamers of lighting into the nearby hillside. The men working on this makeshift bamboo ladder continued to paint the face of the Vaishali Hotel, only crouching on a window ledge during the loudest thunder.
Mountain Stream, Khumbu Valley - Nepal Between Ghat and Lukla this small stream flows under structures that house grinding wheels. The force of the water through this narrow valley can be tremendous during the monsoon of the summer months.
Garden of Dreams, Kathmandu - Nepal This historical site was first know as the garden of Six Seasons, a private garden which was created in the early 1920's and considered a highly sophisticated use of European architecture and landscape design. Over time it fell into disrepair and was nearly reclaimed by jungle. Today, with a partnership with Austrian Government and seven years of work, it has been fully restored. Within the walls of this magnificent oasis, you are enveloped in tranquil gardens, paths, and pergolas, seemingly far away from the chaos and noise of the city.
