RE: 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #71 - the absolute winner takes 200 SBD!

I had the pleasure to spend some time in Bali, Indonesia. This is an island that appears to be inhabited by artists. Artists of the brush, wood, stone and cloth. Whilst we were there an important figure from the Balinese Royal Family died. To mark the occasion the streets of Ubud witnessed the celebration of the Royal Cremation or Ngaben. This was the progression of a tower (which took months to build) through the main street to be burnt at a locally significant place. The streets were alive with people and colour. Below is the base of that tower that went up in flames.
