Holi: The Festival of Colors, 2011
Mar 22, 2011
Around the world, Hindus celebrated Holi last weekend. Called the Festival of Colors, Holi is a popular
springtime festival observed on the last full moon of the lunar month. Participants traditionally
throw bright, vibrant powders at friends and strangers alike, celebrating the arrival of Spring, commemorating
Krishna's pranks, and allowing everyone a momentary freedom -- a chance to drop their inhibitions and simply
play and dance. Gathered here are images from this year's Holi celebrations across India and several
other countries. [36 photos]
Holi is een populair lentefeest dat gehouden wordt op de dag van de laatste volle maan
van de "lunar month".( volgens Wiki : laatste dag van de maand Phalguna is 21 maart.)
