Would turquoise go better with pink?
Hmm, I’d have to think
And let that thought sink
Oh, look we’re already heading nowhere
I’ll soon have nothing to share
You see, I’m actually better with prose
That’s the way it goes.
But I’ll still give it a try,
So tell me, where was I?
Holi – It is the festival of colours. Celebrated mainly in North India, the festival has an important religious significance attached to it. Friends and family gather together wearing white clothes and throwing powdered colour on each other. Sometimes they even use what is known as a pichkari to splash colour water on each other! But, what is off-season is this festival! It is celebrated in March and not in June! If you are in India in March, stay on for the festival!

In December last year, I visited Thekkady. This resort was so nicely decorated for Christmas that the reflections of the lights on the water of the swimming pool was breathtaking in itself. The colours were absolutely vivid and a myriad of them emerged when they touched the water. – Thekkady, Kerala.
Faces, expressions and colours. All on one wall. Found this in a woodcut shop in Sri Lanka. 🙂 Amazing stuff indeed. 🙂
These are masks that are very famous in Sri Lanka. The shop had so many more faces hanging on the walls. The colours, the expressions, the shapes and sizes were simply fascinating. They tell a story about the place. They represent history, folklore and myth. It was wonderful.
