Nothing to do with Asia but a cool video by Hot chip called Colors. Notice the difference if our eyes were to be of a different color! Hope you guys will like it!

Need I say more... I really like the cute childlike color palette in contrast with the old man in white. It somehow gives her a childlike glow to me.

A gorgeous orange series by Matzepeng on Flickr. I just love the subtle halo around the young monk in Laos. Shades of divinity.

The Day of Silence- Bali

16th March Tuesday - Today is the Balinese Hindus New Year Eve, known locally as Nyepi (from the word sepi - silent), the Day of SIlence. Instead of lavish parties, Balinese celebrate the coming New Year with meditation, quiet introspection and spiritual cleansing. The day of silence, no fires, no vehicles, no lights (only candles) and no noise. The day before Nyedi, Ogoh Ogoh (huge representatives of evil spirits) are paraded and it is an explosion of colors, noise, music and flames. After which Nyepi day restores the cosmic balance disrupted by man's greed in exploiting the earth. How wonderful.

The colors and textures around us

As we are busy embracing the newest and the latest in Asia, I found that a sort of sad neglect is taking place towards our immediate surroundings. So I started noticing little forsaken objects taken mostly in Hong Kong for their beautiful colors and textures. I hope others will see the same beauty and colors as I did when I took these photos.
