Patan Now and Then 3: Windows Story
This is not a time lapse photography that compares past and present in multiple frames. The past and present both exist at the same time in one single frame. It is not an uncommon scene that one would encounter in Kathmandu alleys. When the parental property is equally split among offsprings, even the beautifully carved window is measured and cut off according to one's rights. Probably, for this sort of attachment to ancestral property, the old heritage is preserved.
