A few Bhutanese ...

Bhutanese are surprisingly willing to let tourists take their pictures. When I asked for permission, I was almost never waved away. This woman had just happily sold me some cloth she had woven; her more reluctant daughter could have hailed from any culture in the world.

This gent was harvesting turnips, for animal feed I think.

She watched us from her doorway ...

He stalked out to get a better look at us ...

Her delight in our appearance was not rare.

This city fellow saw no reason to interrupt his conversation to attend to passing tourists.

Over the next few days I'll be posting a bounty of photos from Bhutan ... tomorrow a selection of beautiful children and young people.
