Nepal through a lens

The photography expedition was brilliantly planned around golden hour timings. I came back with portfolio-quality images that I'm incredibly proud of. The guide's tips on composition and working with natural light were invaluable. The sunrise at Phewa Lake was a particular highlight. Great small group size too.
