To Pray Or Not To….

At a Melasti ceremony, perhaps is too young for a child to understand the religious philosophy of praying. To follow the other prayer to carry out the process of praying is still yet to acquire.

Melasti is still an unique attraction for tourist and photographer. To capture an uncluttered big picture of Hindu at pray is not an easy task to me. Especially, if you like to have an interesting focal point. In this case, I think I have achieved the end result of my perception.

The last step of Melasti ceremony is purification. The Pratima (god symbol) has to be purified before making a return trip to the temple. The religious parade is usually very colourful especially bathed under the low light condition.
