Portfolio: Holi Festival

Indians celebrate the Holi fesitval of colours inside Vrindavan's Banke Bihari temple. Of the many festivals in India, Holi is among the most vibrant and joyous. It is a unique celebration in that India shuts down completely and people take to the streets to douse each other in coloured powder, or gulal, and literally paint the town red. Cultural norms are suspended in the name of fun and distinctions of caste and religion are forgotten.
