  4. Beautiful shot! This is a time of year over here when we get a short blast of fall color and then have sort of a monochrome winter. In my mind I think of your part of the world enjoying color all the time, but perhaps that's just my imagination.

    "Gulal: It's not just for Holi anymore."

    Very unique angle. Any idea what the occasion was?
