Hi ,
It was so nice to go through the pics. It reminded me of my hometown....I feel like visiting Darj soon. One observation: The major covered areas were Gompas.....would be good if other pics are also added. It will enrich your photo gallery but it was very nice of you to think out of the blue and took beautiful pics of the Queen of Hills.:-)

These photos are amazing! I lived and taught in Pakang for 3 months this year and could never get such beautiful pictures of my babies. You have done them proud and your photos bring tears to my eyes as I miss them all dearly. The teacher you have photographed (Lydia) is one of the kindest people i've ever known and it is wonderful to now have such a beautiful picture of her!
Well done and thanks for some photos I will surely print out and keep forever!

If only i could take such pictures i would consider myself gifted.

I am amazed at the theme and composition, with a digital camera i used to think those digital slr are only gimmick but the results are awesome, i used to get my negatives scanned for converting my pics to digital.
I will try digital now , and hey you are superb... with the rabel .

I am going to Gangtok on 20th want some pics let me know
V.B.RAMANI 26-Nov-2005 12:33
Excellent collection; I am particularly impressed by the photographs of the people chosen by you and the composition of the pictures; The face and the mood brings forth a multitude of meaning and leaves a lasting impression. More than the scenaries, the faces are what you are best in capturing. Thanks for the collection

Do not know the alphabet of photography but the pictures are maginficient. As you can imagine coming from that very place it really touched me.
Riz 19-Oct-2005 13:00
Dear Matt'
I found your pictures to be of classic magnitude, they are really stunning to look at You have used the colour combinations of flags and the sky really well. But just a humble thought Matt, maybe you could use light filters to lessen the brightness of the shots having clouds in it

Your images are really nice. I am a volunteer from wikipedia www.wikipedia.org that aims to create a FREE encyclopedia. You could help us by contributing images to wikipedia, as pix speak a thousand words. (I have personally been to Kalimpong last Dec and have added some images on KP and Sikkim). Ypu would need to create an account there (takes half a minute only) and upload images. You may mail me for more details.
