Most photogenic places and sceneries
The most photogenic places: Probably the most classic amazing photos are from Lake Phewa in Pokhara, where the Annapuren ridge is reflected on the surface. Furthermore, the view from Kalla Patthar on Everest and the surrounding mountains. Number three is Nagarkot (taken with a long zoom to „pull“ the distant ridge of the Himalayas to the top of this hill.
People photoshoot
In Nepal, thanks to its diverse ethnic composition, it is very interesting to take pictures of people, especially if they have local costumes or if you take part in some festivities.
The willingness of local people to have
The locals do not usually problems with the fact that you are taking pictures of them.
Photogenic group of people
- Interesting are the carriers with huge costs. – Young children or the elderly are very photogenic when working in the fields or with scaffolds.
Photos of nature
In Nepal you will definitely take pictures of mountain scenery. When composing, do not forget one thing – quite often the monumentality of the mountains does not stand out in the photo – the loss of scale. It is ideal to add some scale to the composition / a tree, a little man on a rock cliff, etc./
The best sunrises / sunsets
When photographing mountains do not be on steady habits, often mentioned in guidebooks. Rather first see how a mountain is angled against the sun. For example, traditionally tourist go on the sunrise Kala Pattar and Gokyo Ri. The sunset from these prospects is far better – of course, if it comes to the weather.
Best places for a big zoom
Great zoom worth in Chitwan, not only for taking pictures of wildlife, but also to „pull“ distant silhouette of the Himalayas at sunset. Zoom fits indeed in all places where you have the mountains on the horizon.
Where is the best places for photographs
Generally, it is good to shoot the sky in places where the air is dry and there is no light smog, it is in Nepal in all areas „behind Himalayas.“ Here you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Milky Way.
