Colours of the Festival

I know! I’m a sucker for colours… even got me over my phobia of taking photos of people!!! thanks for the favourite and lovely comment!!

Thanks lucinda!

Yayyyyyyyy! Kop kun ka Rainy!!!

Thanks Barbara! It was one of those photos where there was so much going on that it was a bit of a point, shoot, cross the fingers situation!!

Thanks Lorilee!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, thanks ishtarsands! Lovely words indeed!!

Thanks so much whalegeek!!! Lovely surprise!

Thanks so much ildilazar!

Thanks hsien-ku! High praise indeed!

Thanks so much Barbara. What a lovely comment. He was probably wondering who the strange redhead “farang” (foreigner) was who was in the middle of this festival in remote Thailand!!

Thanks Antanas… there is a bit of a story behind this… I hate taking photos of people… I feel so shy, intrusive and awful when I do it… my issue… but John Spies…he is on redbubble.. he was with me and encouraged me to get involved and I finally bit the bullet and bit by bit felt more comfortable taking photos. Now I look back I am really pleased. I feel priveleged to have captured such a beautiful moment. xoxo

Thanks Marjorie, we were looked after so well. I felt like a bit of a dork as there were only a couple of “farangs” (foreigners) there. I am really sensitive towards intruding on other cultures festivals and tend to shy away from taking photos. Luckily, we were with a mate who I mentioned above who encouraged me to take photos and enjoy being a part of the celebration. It was so special to be there and it will be one of the most beautiful memories I have. We were looked after so well by the community and people we were with. xoxoox

Thanks Kseniya!

Thanks j442000 for your really lovely comment! I will have to check out Steve’s work!!

Crikey! THAT Steve McCurry!! Feeling pretty humbled by your comment now!! Thanks again Julie :O)

Thanks Anthony… this was another creeper. I was like “Yeh,nah it’s ok”... hehehhe. Funny. I should take that as being an indication I should put it up!
