I did a search to see if there was such a section here, seems to be "no hab"

So here we go! I believe they go on in many cities towns around Thailand, at various times of the year ... from School festivals .... to well you guys can add!

Starting with

Vegetable Festival Samui, on October 16 to 24 2014 ! (I must admit I did not see any vegetables!... but some pretty impressive floats and Traditional Thai dancing )

Great Kruell! ^

This is the same festival, that I started this thread, apparently turns out it the Thai Lent Festival, not veggie festival I was first told! ...no wonder no veggies!

It ended this evening... Nathon Samui.... very colourful!

Fantastic images Jim & kruell,a pleasure to view (especially post #8 )

Kruell,can I ask what set up you are using? and also could you maybe size down just a bit?

I love to view big images,I myself use the full screen but the ones from you poke out the side of my big monitor.

Sorry to ask and I hope no offense is taken.......Shaggy

Bye the bye, last night I accidentally linked to Google plus, last night .... by trying to do something with loading a You tube of all things....

I have been trying to avoid GP since last time, a bunch of my images went south and I could not load a proper size for posting here on the forum...

it seems OK, believe me I lost sleep last night in case they did, but all seems well, perhaps because editing in Lr 4 first????
