I was invited to photograph the Nepali Lhochaar celebration in Boston recently. I have photographed these a few times before, in 2003 and 2004, so I had an idea of the events to expect. The dancing was spectacular and the crowd was lively and friendly! The backgrounds had been a little busy, so this year, I tried to use less flash and take in more of the ambient light. They had gelled stage lights and a smoke machine, so these added to the drama. Here are the 2007 pictures. I had plenty of positive feedback on the Nepali cultural site, Sajha.com. There was some negativity from another photographer. The food was great too, from Kathmandu Spice.
