About Holi, also called the Festival of Colours, is a popular Hindu spring festival observed in India. In West Bengal of India and Bangladesh, it is known as Dolyatra (Doljatra) or Boshonto Utsav.On the Dol Purnima day in the early morning, the students dress up in saffron-coloured clothes and wear garlands of fragrant flowers. They sing and dance to the accompaniment of musical instruments like ektara, dubri, veena, etc. presenting an enchanting view to the onlookers and a memory to cherish for years. Holi is known by the name of 'Dol Jatra', 'Dol Purnima' or the 'Swing Festival'. The festival is celebrated in a dignified manner by placing the idols of Krishna and Radha on a picturesquely decorated palanquin which is then taken round the main streets of the city or the village. The devotees take turns to swing them while women dance around the swing and sing devotional songs. All this while men keep spraying coloured water and colour powder, abeer at them.

Very nice image. Good use of slow shutter speed to express the movement. It would have been nice to add flash power to diminish the intensity of the background (particularly the sky). Also appreciate the addition of the text about the festival from Wikipedia. Further details (when and where the picture was actually taken) would have been nice also. Great job. / suvro@suvro.com
