Where is the Land of Endless Possibilities?

                                                         (Part 2)   


The Indian fascinating chaos is composed,
 among other things, of   colors.


















Colors are dominant everywhere.
They enhance  the  harsh Indian people with joy and humor.
Look at the women’s clothes:


































Or at the Southern Indian  temples and at  the  religious festivities:






























Indians have a strong urge for ornamentation and beautification.
Of course, the origins go back to ancient traditions,
as can be seen by the sculptures in  old temples:





















Even Nandi, the mythological “vehicle” of the god Shiva,
is  adorned with jewels:

















Talking about  Indian vehicles, 
they are often  ornamented with humor.
There is a wide scope for  individual creativity.
Whether it is the tradional  vehicle -





























Or a modern one - 















































There is more to come.
Bye for now, 
and see you in the next post

                WHY RED?

            (VALENTINES)

                    (no.1)




         










en.wikipedia.org


The colors of red and pink are related to

Valentine’s Day,  the lovers’ day.

Speaking about red, my intuitive  guess was

 that red is the  most popular color

among people all over the world.

As a mother and a grandma,

I know that red is the first color babies identify,

and it is mostly  attractive to them.

But  amongst  adults? -

 Well, I was wrong!

A poll, taken in 2003,

 by Joe Hallock

showed that only

 7% (men) and 9% (women)

preferred red,

while 57% men and 35% women

preferred –surprise: Blue...

Did it surprise you?

In fact, I  did notice that most of my clothes

are in all kinds of blue variations...


What is your favorite color?

What color is dominant in your closet?
