A
set of photos depicts activities at Siberia's first Festival of Colors, modeled after the Hindu festival Holi
Participants daubed each other with paint and colored water in a mass
frolic of color. They also hosed each other and jumped into the vats
with colored water. There were performances of acrobats and jugglers
and all visitors could make a mehendi, a temporary henna tattoo.
Organizer Anatoly Koptev said: 'The idea of the festival was met with
such a great response that we ended up welcoming a lot more people than
we expected; at some point we ran out of paint and had to bring an
extra truckload in.
