KATHMANDU, NEPAL, April 29, 2015 (National Geographic, by Thomas C. Kelly): In the introduction to this National Geographic photo feature, Kelly–whose work has appeared for years in Hinduism Today–writes, “I believe that with compassion and reciprocity, a photographer who is willing to stay and be part of a place and its community can capture the depth of an authentic relationship. Saturday’s earthquake hit home for me, literally shaking our house and family on Saturday. As an American photojournalist based in Nepal for 30 years, I’ve documented development projects, politics and traditional heritage. But shooting the quake’s aftermath is the first assignment I’ve done with my son Liam, 19, who was born in Nepal. We both speak Nepali and consider Kathmandu home.”
