Women enjoying each other’s company

June 26, 2015 by Teacher Jack in Kathmandu Nepal

Women enjoying each other’s company
Dadagaun, Kathmandu 2005

The road named Manamiju Marg follows a long slope. There is a bit of a crest, then a hammock-like dip, before it starts to rise again. Some of these friends and neighbors live in that “hammock” area. Between and behind their houses there are a terraced fields.

The day I took this photo, the woman in purple was visiting; one of their mother’s, I believe.

Afterwards (or perhaps before) I got my photo taken as well.

One of the reasons I love this this photo is—notice the natural placement of everyones hands—how it wordlessly just tells you so much about their love for each other.
