What beautiful kratongs, Anatta! Very natural. The Kratongs here at my temple are styrofoam and garish....but we do what we can, being so far away.

http://www.thailandqa.com/forum/imag...lies/blush.gif kob khun kha pailin for prefer in my Kratongs .Main concept of these Kratongs is have to made super save but beautiful kratongs for all of my family member in 1 hour limit timing na kha...I just used 3 kinds of leaf and white Bougainvillea flowers that bloom a lots in my house.So! the result have became as earlier attached.

Wow, Anatta, that really does suprise me. I really do think they are a piece of art and yours is really nice. I never considered, not even once, using anything in my mothers garden for a piece of art like that (1) my mother would have my head and 2) I am not quite the artistic type) but nonetheless, very glad to see others make them! Also, great to see that with so many people sending krathongs down the river, a greater percentage this year was natural materials which really does help out the environement...

beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing..it makes me miss home. =D

thank you. I guess it's difficult to make very bad pics in Thailand, especially when it's sunny :-) I struggle a lot with nighttime shoots though. I'll post the link to the new instalment as soon as I get a post together on krathongs.

My God, Betti--your photos are just awesome! Your layout, the lighting, the interplay of colors, the choice of subject--everything was just so professionally and artistically done. Thanks for sharing them.
