ah yes, we went to shakhari bazar as well and got chased by colours. the problem was that we needed to look exactly the way we left when we would go back home, so we couldn't exactly risk looking blue-and-purple.
may i safely assume you're one of 5 photographers who went in there with SLRs/Canons/Nikons as the locals informed us? koitai gesilen?

Ah!! What a colorful expression!!!!
I loved the colors today. I also loved being colored all over. Even I felt like dancing with the celebrators amid the over saturated colors of merriment........
Will upload my shots tomorrow...my internet is disconnected because of exceeding the credit limit...!!
