Patan Kathmandu Video Screen Capture

 
 
Sometimes it's good to just put the camera down on a ledge and let the daily street life of Patan's Durbar Square naturally fill one's eyes and lens. As i reviewed the raw video footage I became fascinated by the idea that the true beast of burden were not the sacred cows but rather the men who transport goods through the citie's pedestrian only Durbar Square.
