After a gap of almost twenty years, I played Holi the way it is played in India. Holi is the Indian festival of colors! Stanford Holi is an annual event attended by over one thousand individuals.
During the last one hour, I brought my Canon S2-IS into the ground and shot pictures one after the other, unfazed by water sprays and color clouds. Actually, people are very polite and do not disturb photographers :) Really! So nothing bad happened to my camera: not a drop of water or color! All pictures I shot are part of the album below; none has been deleted. On the whole, I had a lot of fun! Slideshow of all Pictures.
