"Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing? Can one really explain this? No. Just as one can never learn how to paint." ~ Pablo Picasso

Such ornate and terrific colours in the costumes and masks. Lucky you to have such an array of images to admire and photograph!!
ReplyDeleteColorful he is.
ReplyDeleteGosh, what gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteNow those are some amazing, colorful, fun costumes! It must have been exciting to watch!
ReplyDeleteWhile he would attract lots of attention at the Pope's front door, I don't suppose he is all that different in Menton during the various festivals.
ReplyDeleteAnother fab photo of the costume and "life" of the parade!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great quote. I always thought there is some rule that they teach artists in art school, and I don't know the rule because I didn't go to art school. Now I feel better.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, You really cropped this photo wonderfully to zero in on that man's face. Showing the larger photograph lets us see your artistry.
This looks like the "Indian" crews that perform at Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
ReplyDeleteI just love it when you capture such joyous faces and colourful scenes!
