My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Nepal | Sunday, October 17, 2010 | 5 photos


I am a Amature photographer; i saw this Advertisment and went out and took the pictures in just 5 min;
in my pictures i have shown some of the marvolous architectural ; cultural ; religious temples in Nepal, Nepal is concidered as the country of temples, it is said that there were more temples then their were houses ,due to rich religious cultural and traditional values the people are bound in a chain of brother hood this harmoney has made Nepal a peaceful keeping aside the political conflict; Nepal is famose for many things Natural beauty&diversity,culture,wildlife diversity etc, it is a heaven between two Power hungry nations. I choose these pictures Because i wake up to see them everyday&i want to show everyone what i see everyday&what they R missing. these temple was a result of a unhealthy competetion of kings who showed off power throught architecture and carving, the living goddess "kumarI" the girl in the red dress :during the festival of "Indrajatra" ,MAybe tyred from her 3 day long chariot ride around the valley and the demonic looking masked man is "lakhey" a demon turned God,who dances around along with charriot of kumari to make people happy and to take away all the sorrow and to drive away pain ,he is also the symbol of peace&harmoney & teaches people no matter who U r and wher U come from;IT matter what do ,the HUge temple with small temple surrounding it is "taleju" the godess who protects the people and to bring prospertu to the people ,the other pictue is of "kal bhairab" it is a Great tourist destination ,it is in the outskirt of Hanuman dhoka (palace) and Taleju, it also carries its own story,all of them r put in the religious heretage of the world;
I thnk i'm enthustic,high potential,curious to learn &have eye for detail&bring pictures to life,
