Something a wee bit different today. At the end of June we went to the Glasgow Mela. The Mela celebrates Asian culture in Glasgow. Asian in the UK is Indian, Pakistani and surrounding areas and not Chinese or Japanese. It is a wonderful event and I have been going for many years now. There is a lot of dancing, singing, plenty of good food and lots of event for the kids. Here are some photos from the event this year.
The 3rd photo is a little Aphid that landed on my hand, of course I had to get a photo of him before he flew off! And the last photo, I somehow ended up with the official photographers and got a good shot of these dancers
It sure was a very interesting event.

DeleteMulti-cultural festivals are a fine thing, and we have attended a few. That was before COVID. I have never been a huge fan of big crowds and I think COVID-enforced seclusion reinforced that, and I doubt very much that I will ever attend such an event again.
ReplyDeleteThey really are fine thing indeed. I am not a fan of crowds either but I like to go to certain events. :-D
DeleteIt looks a colourful event, I enjoyed your photographs.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
