Daily Photo Theme - A Photograph from the Waist Down

Another challenging DP theme! This time I opted to show a touch of Indonesia. As some of you might know, Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia which is full of different ethnic groups from all over the island. On this picture you can see the lady wearing a nice Javanese kain or sarong, with a Balinese gate on the background and Indonesian flags. The picture was taken in one of the schools in Jakarta when they were having a cultural festival.

The composition is great here.
The colors....
The arrangement...
The red and white strips almost look like a giant pair of pants, and the yellow skirt seemingly points to it....a very nice contribution to the theme day! Cheers.

This really is a lovely picture and what a great way to incorprorate Indonesian culture into it!

Yes, I agree. The sarong and the print are wonderful.

Really nice sense of place. It's neat that you could bet a shot during a cultural festival.
