I'm surprised you went for the b+w, being a color guy yourself. The shots were all basically taken while Tricia stared at a guidebook plotting our next move - not too much moving around to get the best angle. In "downtown" Kathmandu it was crowded enough to almost always be inside a scene but at Pashupatinath it was a different story. That fire is a cremation and I just didn't feel (at that moment in my life) like getting inside other people's funerals, hence the removed view that day. Thanks again. - ---Peter - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
