Fabulous human interest shot Larry...and the tight composition really works on this image.

Dear Daisy: Thanks for feedback. These poor ladies stood in line for hours to have a chance to enter their temple and pray. Their colorful clothing compelled lots of photographs. It was one of my highlights on my first visit to Nepal. :)

Love the colors & the faces-did u have to get their permission ? It seems difficult to take a candid photo if u talk to them first. as usual the explanation add so much to each photo!

I am very happy that you like human interactions in your pictures. I like this photograph. I am in India and here also so many such Hindu festivals are celeberated in a year. You will find similar scenes before the Hindu Temples. Have you visited India? All the best and with regards, Moorthy
