Taleju temple, Hanuman Dhoka, Durbar Square, Kathmandu, Nepal 2006
The Taleju temple is one of the grandest in Nepal and sits on a series of brick plinths within the Hanuman Dhoka palace courtyards in central Kathmandu It is closed except on one day a year to Nepalis and is not open to foreigners Made by stitching together several infra red images the result is a stunning highly detailed panoramic vista of this world heritage site The photograph has also been sepia toned to give this modern image a traditional old fashioned feel reminiscent of the way the skyline might once have seemed
