Starting a new thread today for my Bhutan travels, because "Tsechu" :)

Most reasonable sized temples and dzongs in Bhutan have one big festival each year, where the monks dance and invite good fortune for their village. This year we're in Bumthang, and attending a few familiar festivals.

The monks dress as demons and deities, and perform sacred dances (cham). Festivals are a genuine challenge for any photographer to capture. So much going on, tricky light, and an overload of stimulation.

I love it!
