Blind

These last few weeks since arriving in Spain I haven't had time to take pictures, or even edit my work from my project. I'm really missing being totally absorbed in photography! For now I'll have to post some of the images that stand out in my mind. Here's one that I took just a day before leaving Nepal that I feel captures something about the extreme circumstances of poverty in many peoples' lives there...
