[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was invited to a "picnic" by the hotel owner (drinking water from a bottle)and his freind. We drove in the hotel owner's car. He stuffed his family and relatives all in one car. In Nepal, you might cook huge vats of food for your entire extended family, or you stop at a small local restaurant. I paid for all the food thinking I was paying only for mine (so cheap then). I was also charged for the trip a huge sum of money by Nepal standards, which was added to my hotel bill. You must be careful in hotels, some love to pad the bill. The lady looking forward, is a drunken stranger, and hoping to be included in the meal. I bought her some food too.

Hello Gloria,
Good documentary, situation is well framed!
Miss some sharpness, but the journalistic value overrides to some extent...
Greetings,

Hi Gloria, I like the idea of the shot and the 'local lifestyle' is nicely presented. The lighting is also good but I felt the focus was too soft or could have use a bit of 'beef' in the pp. TFS.
