Hello,

the portrait entitled "Kumari, the Living Goddess" from the album TOP Destinations: Bhaktapur was distinguished in two international photo competitions. In Eyes on Asia Awards 2015 was one of the Top 5 portraits in the People category (selected from the 20 finalists) and was named as one of the finalists in the second international photo competition All of Asia.

You can browse all the finalists and winners of Eyes on Asia 2015 here and check previous winners in the contest website. Regarding All of Asia, you can browse all the finalists here and my photo here.

I dedicate these two awards to the Nepali people who suffered horrors when their land was severely hit by several major earthquakes in April and May this year. I hope they continue to have the courage to overcome the loss of their most loved ones and to have the strength to finish rebuilding their houses and restoring the amazing heritage all over the unique Kathmandu valley.

All the best!

Carlos Esteves
