an interlude of colour...
these photos are from the "Holi Festival of Colours." it's a Hindu celebration to welcome spring and the triumph of good over evil. what i love (aside from the obvious thrill of slopping pigment all over everyone, their mom and oneself) is the look of absolute joy on everyone's face. i am choosing to ignore the other obvious fact that powdered and liquid pigments whether synthetic or natural can be inherently dangerous in a plethora of ways...on a side note, i am plotting something exciting...

wonderful photos couldn't agree more with your comment also.
This is the first time I'm hearing about that festival. The photos are beautiful! How great that which ever part of the world you're in:
spring = color!
Facinating world & Intense coloursss! ~Happy Spring 2U*
I think another reason that they look so happy is that it is traditional to eat small balls of hash when celebrating holi and throwing the paint around.
