I was going through a box full of old prints and negatives when I came across a few old Kodak picture CDs. I had no idea what was on them. So I took a look and to my surprise found a “treasure trove” of pictures I had taken in and around Kathmandu in 1999. I didn’t usually have them put on Kodak CDs, but for some reason I had this time. I’m glad I did too. I’ve tried scanning some of the pictures from prints. It was a very time consuming process and I wasn’t entirely happy with the results. It was much easier to work from the CDs. I’m not sure what camera was used. It would have been either a Minolta Hi-Matic 7sii or a Canon AE-1, most likely the Canon as I don’t think I could have gotten as close with the Minolta as some of these shots seem to require.  Fourteen years later I can’t remember much about my motivation in taken the pictures so I’ll let them speak for themselves other than to say that I can’t resist calling the first one “Kids with kids”. There are more pictures in a Nepal album here.
