Yak in Himalayas This yak was photographed near Kyangin Gompa at about 5,000 meters elevation in the Himalaya Mountains during a Nepal trek. |
Nepalese Prayer Wall This is a Buddhist prayer wall in the Himalaya Mountains of Nepal. The Buddhist in this part of Nepal create these walls of stones - some perhaps a hundred meters long - with each stone individually carved with prayers. |
Holy Man In Kathmandu, Nepal the dead are cremated outside the Pasupathinath Temple and their remains brushed into the Bagmati River. Near the Pasupathinath Temple, holy men and snake charmers greet passersby. |
Children in Langtang This is a picture of happy children from the village of Langtang, Nepal - high in the Himalaya Mountains where I visited during a Nepal trek. |
Long Neck Woman The village of Tha Ton, along the border of Thailand and Myanmar, is home to the "Long Necked Women". They are part of the Karen Tribe of people that also live in Myanmar to the north. From the time the girls in this tribe are very young, they begin wearing brass rings around their necks. More rings are added as the girls grow, causing the collar bone to be suppressed. It is this that gives these women the illusion of having long necks. |
Syabru, Nepal Syabru, Nepal is a beautiful little village that spreads along a ridgetop in the Himalaya Mountains. This village is a stopping over point during the Langtang Nepal trek. |
Killing Fields This picture is from the Killing Fields of Cambodia. The skulls are contained in a shrine behind glass. The reflections of the children and the Cambodian flag, reflected in that glass, are real. See more photos at the Cambodia Page. |
Village and Mountains Villages in the Himalaya Mountains of Nepal typically stretch along a ridge of mountaintops. Many of these are entirely isolated and can be reached only by foot. Beautiful Syabru can be visited during the Langtang Nepal trek. |
Buddha and Flowers This is the reclining Buddha at Wat Pho Temple in Bangkok. |
Phu Luang Tai This is the village of Phu Luang Tai in the mountains of Laos. See more photos at the Laos Page. |
