In pictures: Photos by the abandoned of Nepal

"When books and pens are in my hands I have to study, but when I have the camera in my hands I can have fun taking photos. I never feel bored with the camera. Boys say, this is a girl, she can't do anything, but I want to make money and lead my life independently and show them I can do something," says 15-year-old Kamala.

"I'd like to be a photographer. If we learn more, we can help our future brothers and sisters to improve their lives too," she says.
