EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a man joyfully throws coloured water as he celebrates the vibrant festival of Lathmar Holi in Nandgaon, Uttar Pradesh. The image captures the essence of this unique tradition that takes place in Nandgaon and Barsana villages during Holi. As part of this age-old custom, men sing playful and provocative songs to gain the attention of women. In response, these spirited women "beat" them with bamboo sticks called lathis. This lively interaction between genders adds an element of excitement and fun to the festivities. Holi, also known as the Festival of Colours, marks the arrival of spring and is celebrated throughout India with great enthusiasm. It is a time when people come together to forget their differences and embrace unity through vibrant colours. The photograph beautifully showcases the exuberance and energy that fills the air during Lathmar Holi celebrations. The splashes of colour against a backdrop of smiling faces create a visual spectacle that truly encapsulates the spirit of this ancient festival. Photographer Ahmad Masood has skillfully captured this momentous occasion where religion, society, and anniversary converge into one harmonious celebration. His lens immortalizes not just an event but also highlights how traditions continue to thrive amidst modern times in diverse cultures around the world.
