The funny thing is, after looking more at the photo, I think I want one!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Yellow
Winter in Nepal is a time when you can see bright yellow mustard fields. The eye-catching, vivid colour reminds me so much of the bright colours you see everywhere here. This particular mustard field had a cactus with yellow flowers and spooky, dramatic spider webs. Fantastic!
For more interpretations of yellow – this week’s photo challenge.

Travel Theme: Freedom
What could be more exhilarating as a kid than flying through the air on a swing? The sense of freedom…. Flying like you’re a bird!

Every September/October, during the Dashain festival, these simple (but huge!) bamboo swings are built all over Nepal for the kids to play on. There’s one in every village and plenty of kids enjoying the ride. The swings disappear pretty quickly after the festival. We’ve wondered why they don’t just leave them up, but perhaps they become unsafe over time? As it is, that’s a long way to fall….they’re pretty good at it, though!

I wish I knew what the sign says?! “this is a very accident prone area, high speed (on your vehicle) may take your life away(kill you).”

Travel Theme: Slow
Right to left to shows the progress from chunk of stone to lion. These photos were taken at a third generation stone carving factory in Kathmandu, where we watched the back backing work of carving. It takes painstaking detail, skill and experience to acquire this slowly learnt, slowly executed craft. Some things are worth the investment of time.
This post participated in the Travel Theme of “Slow”. See more entries here.
