Groom's arrival (005 2nd year)
D300 with 18-105mm - no PP except for a bit of crop & colour correction.
In (most) Indian weddings the groom arrives in a procession with his family and friends to the bride's house or the venue of the wedding. Pre automobile days the groom used to arrive on a horse or an elephant. Even today, many people have horses, elephants or buggies to carry the groom. There is music and dancing in front of the procession which gets louder as they near the venue!
This is from the wedding in Kerala with the groom atop an elephant with a man sitting behind him holding a red umbrella. The men in white are dressed in a typical Kerala style and the one in the middle is playing a drum. Another person on the right has a different type of a drum while the person in front of him is holding a wind instrument.
The coloured paper is confetti from a firecracker burst a few seconds before.
