Wrong Outfit For The Ocassion

Malaysia

It's a rather unusual scene to capture during the Thaipusam festival. You would think you only see devotees in the street. It was kind of odd to find this strange looking lady dressed in an `opera' costume. Her motive was to give away those pink coloured envelopes supposedly containing some `lucky numbers or whatever??'. The boy at the back obviously took an envelope and there she was walking away feeling delighted. "I did it!"

Wow... I see a palm tree.... I haven't seen one in sooooooo long !
I love the costume that lady is wearing. I couldn't careless if it was the "right" costume or not. The point is she was there, in all her glory. The colors are unbeleivable... What a day it must have been... the colors, the sounds, the smells... wow... I wish I was there. But your images bring us there Tricia, thank you.
