Sadhu at Pashupatinath Temple

SKU NPL-002

I wasn’t prepared for the rawness of the open-air public cremation gathering place that was Pashupatinath Temple.

The Sadhu – Hindu ascetics (holy men) – are a striking presence at Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal. These ascetics, often in saffron robes with ash-smeared bodies and painted faces, have given up all possessions to seek spiritual liberation. Many, devoted to Shiva, gather here to meditate, chant, and perform rituals, symbolizing the Hindu ideal of detachment amidst the rawness of life and death rituals.

Getting the shot: I think I paid the guy like $5. I mean donated.

After experimenting with several different printers and types of prints, and speaking with about a dozen different fine art photography gallery owners around the world to pry for their sources, I’ve chosen to work with a renowned print shop in the US who produces superior gallery-level prints. These are statement pieces with superior detail, rich pigments and gloss finishes that will not fade or yellow over time. I have tried several cheaper alternatives, and I feel that these prints best represent my work and will last for years to come.

All prints come with hardware for hanging and do not need any additional framing or components to be ready for display.

Canvas Prints are professional 1 1/2″ thick gallery-wrapped canvas wall art prints. A wire hanger is included as the standard option because they hang perfectly flush to the wall; a sawtooth hanger is a second option (by request only).

Fujiflex Silver Halide Prints use a process inspired by traditional darkroom photography, where light exposure activates unique silver halide crystals in the pigment. Chemical development then reveals the image with unmatched clarity, vibrant color, and smooth, continuous tones. If you’re wondering which print is best, this one is best.

Contact me directly if you desire a frame, specific size or specific editing style.

Allow 7-14 days for processing and production, and 5-7 days for shipping. If you desire a wooden crate or have questions, please ask here.

Due to the print and shipping costs, all sales are final. However, if you have any issues with your print(s), simply let me know and I will work directly with the printer to resolve any issues.
