I love taking portraits at this remarkable sacred location--the Boudhanath Stupa in the Kathmandu Valley.

 

I have not been taking many photos lately, but I found this one when looking through my archives from this special trip to India and Nepal in the fall of 2017 and found that it works nicely in black and white. I first processed it fully in color in Lightroom then used the Wet Rocks filter in Nik's Silver Effects Pro 2 Collection to come to the final look. This is the same process I used for the photo entitled "Dharamsala sadhu", another shot from the same trip:

I hope you enjoy it!
