Eh...? Melvin's face got so slim one meh?
Or is it got used 'Liquify' tool in Photoshop to purposely sliim down his cheek profile one? :bsmilie:

Haha doc, just pushed up a minor contrast only leh. My PP skills not that good lah.

Tough man

And talking about that tough man that is talking with so much emotion... here here...
I just have this urge to show how powerfully muscular that tough man has become...
Here it is..

Hahaha where got muscular.....my down jacket puffy only la.

:cry: non-stop tears rolling down as I read and write...
I don't even know where to begin because the 10 days I spent with all of you left me speechless. This was by far the best trip I've ever been(although I kbkb:bsmilie and in fact such a life changing experience. The people I was with, the places we went and the things we got to do were all so amazing and wonderful!!!
When I look back on my trip, I got to discover myself which I now believe is what travelling should be all about. After meeting alot of SG Trekker's "family", hang out with our crazy mates. It is no wonder SG Trekker is such a crazy company.
Adrian and Melvin was so down to earth. In this trip, they taught me that there is no time in life excuses. You just gotta live. You grow together like a family and that was the best part about going with SG Trekker.
We had the time of our lives and already am starting to look into their other trips.
Thank you so much for all the experience and memories!!!:thumbsup:
Bohoohoo:cry:

Yah. Adrian says that ABC's scenery is very different from EBC.
And also, the track is very different.
So it will very likely to be a totally different experience.
But if we do ABC next year, we still must come back again to complete our EBC one leh... can?

82. Step in applying make up during Holi Festival.
1. Get as many people as possible to apply make up for your eyes, lips, cheeks even hair
2. Use yellow powder as a last touch to give a glow to your face
3. Carefull not to breath when they put powder on you, else u might keep sneezing

83. And walah......u r ready for the Holi and don't forget to put that charming smile in your face

84. Some people keep running from this make up application process until we have to finally caught him ;P

Yah! I think at this stage when I tampa the make up on Melvin, I didn't have the yellow powder with me.
Man, I should've had some yellow powder to give it the last burst of sneezing! Wahahaha..!

Sorry for the long absence, i had limited time to work on the remaining photos from the trip. Stopped at Lukla when I started going in and out of town the last few weeks, plus never ending running nose & cough (wonder if it will ever go away?). Anyway, here's a continuation from where I left off at Lukla...

Shared this on FB, and posting this on CS for the rest...

Yeah!
I said it and I am saying it again!
Lovely (almost) Goldie IR shots, my friend!
To me, especially significant was the Dudh Koshi in IR.
Unforgettable.
This must be one of the very few times the Dudh had been captured in Infrared of the 600nm range!

 

[Wind 450D]

[askaboutlife]

[mousedeers]

wkcheah, The infrared photos look very great. Like it.

 

[scanner]

Looks like I've missed out another fun trip...
Great pics that you guys have shared.

Brother Wee How, another travelogue well done.

Think, I have to start planning this year for another photography trip.

94. Durbar Square

 

[campoes]

95. I wonder what ice flavor is that ??

96. Life on the streets has important consequences for individual well-being and for society in general. Some recent studies of street children have shown them to be in poor physical and mental health, engaged in a variety of high risk practices, lacking in education. and ill-equipped to lead a full and productive adult life.
As you can see in this photo, this kid just sleeps on the streets like a stray dogs (pardon me if this sounds rude, but that's the reality), without no one bothers about his existence.

97. Nepal's Pink Panther

98. Not everyone celebrates Holi, this few guys still need to work hard to feed their family
