I know. I'm getting in a bit early for Halloween... but its a cold and rainy night here with the wind whipping off the ocean...
hallow e'en: the Celtic celebration similar to the festival of the dead; where summer's end has come. ancestors are welcomed and evil spirits warded off by lighting lanterns and dancing around bonfires wearing costumes and masks. (and perhaps eating lollies?)
sounds good to me. black and white buildings lend themselves to the eerie angle posed by nighttime spirit festivals... so enjoy them for the pixels they are, but also the celebration of the sub cultures we have created in humanity which make our life that little bit more interesting.....
