Tengboche Monastery

July 01, 2009 7 comments

We visited Tengboche Monastery during a month-long honeymoon in the Solukhumbu, Nepal.

What a crazy place! Sharing a ceremony with the monks was one of the most moving yet bizarre experiences I have ever had and will live with me forever.

The clear, crisp skies were just perfect for both the cameras. It was my first real outing with the Holga so I was really pleased with the results. My favourite being the Monastery entrance. I gave my fisheye to my Nepali friend Prajwal when I left, it was time he was introduced to the world of Lomography!
