Glimpse of a religious procession in Karnataka, India.

in #culture6 years ago

The religious processions are very common in India. I have seen so many religious procession in our area but this time it was in Karnataka state. During our visit to Dubare elephant camp, I saw a procession was going. It was somewhat different from any procession in our place and found it interesting for photography.
I could not understand what the occasion was as they were speaking their local language Kannada but one thing I understand that they were not allowing anybody near who was not barefoot. I was barefoot so got an opportunity to go nearby and clicked some photographs.
Here I am sharing few photographs of that procession, I am sure you would find it interesting.

As interesting as always, friend!. You managed to make some very realistic photos and very close shots perfect. Thank God you were barefoot! My favorite was the first one, an awesome look!

I saw an expressive face on the main photo and could not pass by.
What bright costumes and spectacular make-up!
I was in India in December. It is a pity that he could not see such a procession. And we were only 9 days old. This is insignificantly short time for a country like India :-(

9 days even not enough to visit an Indian state like Rajasthan, Karnataka etc. India has about 20 big and 10 small states. All states have their own culture and tradition.
