Next to my complex where I live in Jakarta, there is a Hindu Bali Pura. Pura is a place for a pray and make a kind of ceremony for Balinese, so even the location fo the Pura is at the center of the most crowded city in Indonesia, if we go inside we can feel very different atmosphere.... quite and full of extra-ordinary aura. In one occasion, Adi (my Balinese friend) told me that if I want to I can join him to see the Saraswati Ceremony at that Pura... of course I said 'YES' and bring my Nikon EL + 35mm f/2 Nikkor lens plus several rolls of Tri-X. please enjoy it... didon.-  |

Thanks for posting those photos. It gives me a glimpse of something I am not likely to encounter here. I would have gladly said yes too if somebody offered me the opportunity to attend. I think I see a characteristic of the Nikkor 35/2 in the way it handles point source lights. It tends to flare out on them. That does not detract from my enjoyment of the photos one bit.

didon,
The pictures are interesting and very well done.
However, that ceremony must have been extraordinarily colourful.
How I would like to see those colours. What life and vibrancy they might have added.

Thanks for the images. The devotion of the worshipers was quite obvious in your pictures.
