In honour of our fellow human beings in Nepal who are suffering in the terrible earthquake, I give you a gallery of ‘motion’ pictures taken when we were lucky enough to visit in October 2013. Beautiful people, beautiful country. My heart goes out to them all. Click on any photo for detail and the caption.
Street food moving from ladle to plate
Trying to catch the motion of the child’s windmill and getting the motion of a scooter as well
Crossing the street
Children swinging. We saw these swings erected all the way on our journey between Kathmandu and Pokhara
Trying to stop the weight of his cart taking him faster down the hill than he would wish
Moving slowly uphill with a heavy load
Elegant motion through the water of the lake at Pokhara
Bike, motor bike and Tuc Tuc on the move
Family on the motorbike, truck and bus
Family on a scooter and young men on a tractor, moving in opposite directions

You captured motion perfectly, but yes, the tragedy is indescribably sad.

Thanks for bringing me to a place I’ve yet to explore for myself. My thoughts have been with the people there. Beautiful post, Sally.

Thank you. I am just so sad for the people there. We met so many lovely friendly people and i fear for their safety.
