At the time those pictures where taken, Asti Man Bajacharya was in charge of a small temple next to the Bhaktapur Durbar Square. It's a “job” by 2, 3 years men rotation. At about 78 years old, he finished his “turn” of three years a few months after our visit and used to regularly do this job for many many years. A big thanks to Yolande Ashika, our marvelous guide on this area for the complementary informations about him (I'll dedicate her a small post soon).
This portrait have been photographed with the subject authorization. It's not a “stolen portrait”.
Wherever possible and when there was no language barrier, constraint of literacy or time (for me as for the subject), etc., I get the name of each photographed person.
