  1. Amazes me how many butterflies are still darting about in Bhutan even at this time of year.

    There's a few winter blossoms that help things along. We're just getting to the end of the leather wood and it's stunning blue petals.

  2. I'm sitting in a cafe with a hour to kill so I'm doing a smidge of processing and trying to delete most of 6,500 shots taken in Phobjikha Valley.

    Just found my Lawa La shots and I can't believe Bhutan can be so lovely.

  3. The other day we arrived in Phobjikha and headed to the crane centre and a storm blew through but first it lit up the other side of the valley :)

    These shots on the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 and gotta say it's a handy lens to have in the bag.

  4. Afternoon light on Drukgyel Dzong.

    Some places are easily overlooked by photographers who are searching for "the ultimate" landscape shot or whatever. I like these quiet moments with the Thunder Dragon.

  5. A few scenes from behind the scenes at this week's festival in Bhumthang.

    The Band. The Mask. The Monk. The Moment.

  6. Dancing monks in Bhutan. Late in the day there was one final "masked dance", and in many ways the most significant. The Black Hat Cham.

    They timed it to perfection, with the last monk disappearing back into the temple seconds before the light fell behind the mountains.

  7. Can't keep up with my photos on this trip. Took another 3000 captures today. Mostly at a festival. Will share some of those tonight.

    Still haven't processed all my little monks learning to make Thorma in Chendibji.

  8. Goodnight from Bhutan.

    Today we left Phobjikha Valley and are spending the night in Trongsa. On the way we stopped into Chendibji Chorten, where they now have a small gompa for very young novice monks.

    It was a very good day today.

  9. I'm working on a new YouTube video that delves into my experiences this month shooting in the Himalayas. I've been enjoying ICM at some of my favie temples and gompas and dzongs.

    Here's a sneak preview below :)

    If you enjoy watching photography tutorials on YouTube feel free to subscribe to my channel and keep an eye out at the end of the month for my ICM special.

  10. Sunshine is out in force again. I love winter in the Himalayas because it's dry and sunny, plus it's super cold at night which means I get a good night's sleep!

  11. If you ever travel to Bhutan make sure you leave enough time here to journey all the way to Gangtey in Phobjikha Valley. It's a real gem of Bhutan. Potato farmers, migratory cranes, a magnificent gompa and some beautiful forests.

  12. What was beautiful today was seeing everyone at the temple pitch in together and make a the momos. Teamwork makes the dream work :)

  13. Lunch with the monks today. This temple has about 40 young novices who are studying and hoping to better their lives.

    And they have some lovely doggos!

  14. Stopped at the gompa in Lubra and the locals were holding a puja for the full moon. They let us join in. Very beautiful moments in that lovely old building, with the traditions keep alive by the village folk.

  16. One more from this morning. Beside the Kali Gandaki River the pilgrims set fire to candles and make offerings to their gods. I am not a religious person at all, but I do find it fascinating the detail and passion that goes into such fevered devotion.

  17. This view never gets old. Not really a lazy stroll in the park, but totally worth the effort. This is where the Mustang meets the Annapurnas.

  18. We have a nice place to rest in Kagbeni. Sunny rooms. Views of Nilgiri from dawn til dusk. Yummy food :) I like it here very much.

  19. Took about 6000 photos in two days here. Also inspired to write a few words about the "Beautiful Chaos" that is Nepal. Will share that soon.

  20. Good morning from Bhaktapur. We're heading west today in search of big mountains, and leaving behind the little treasures.

  21. I find the expression of religion in Nepal to be quite beautiful. It's very fluid and inviting of many expressions. Never rigid. They make room for everyone.

    I am not a religious person, but I see beauty in the people of Nepal and their cultural fluidity.

  22. Good morning from Nepal. Dashain is getting into full swing here. Lots of chickens and goats at the market. The entire town is out to make offerings to their gods. School bands are wandering the streets playing flutes and drums. It's just a little bit marvellous today.

  23. Lots of great light to work with today. Lots of lovely little moments (and lovely little momos!) The streets are pumping with Dashain celebrations too. Gonna be out on the streets a lot tomorrow :)
