Photo Description:
This picture was taken during Indra Jatra at Indra Chowk. The little boy in the picture represents lord Bhairav. The chariot arrived at Indrachowk and I was quite lucky enough to climb on it and get a close up view. The festival of Indra Jatra continues for eight days with much rejoicing, singing, dancing and feasting. On the third day of the festival of Indra Jatra, the living goddess Kumari is taken out in a procession in a chariot. “Kumari”, the “living goddess”, is considered to be an incarnation of the goddess “Taleju”. Chariots of Kumari, Ganesha and Bhairav are taken around the city for three days. According to Hindu beliefs Ganesha is the son of Shiva and Parvati who has a head of an elephant and Bhairav is another form of Lord Shiva himself.

Good – I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all tabs and related info ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or anything, site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Nice task.

Thanks Ravi, you spotted it very well, I used ISO-6400 as I am not a fan of using flash and yes, I did use the noise reduction tool.
liked the image and description, nicely captured the moment. Well one thing did you use any noise reduction tool later or is it that your camera produce less noise even in ISO-6400? 🙂
