Pongal Harvest Festival
丰收节
...
In India, it is believe that the cow is
a sacred animal to act as surrogate mother
to provide milk for human beings for their entire lives
...
As the festive day continues,
women carry pots of milk sitting on their head
preparing for a symbolic pilgrimage

Beautiful. That last shot is the perfect finale.
These are wonderful pictures of a very interesting custom.
Beautiful captures Wong... I especially love the low level of ambient daylight, and the glowing lights of the ceremony. Beautiful photography.
Wonderful reportage, full of color.
Greetings.
Like always, there are beautiful photos here, Wong! Very good portraits. I like the last one the most. It has a nice composition with the pot, the lights, henna and flowers...Thanks for showing us how interesting are these rituals at Batu Caves.
Wong you've captured some amazing moments in time. I especially love the last photo, it leaves a sense of wonder and the macro on it is perfect! Excellent shots once again.
In your country are very beautiful and interesting traditions .
