IMG_1965 * Balinese Hinduism is a very demanding religion in terms of time you have to dedicate to making offerings etc. Here a group are preparing to put offerings in the ocean to neutralise the not so nice spirits that live in the ocean. * 3648 x 2736 * (3.05MB)

IMG_1966 * Here we go. * 3648 x 2736 * (2.19MB)

IMG_1967 * Putting the offerings in the ocean. Just about every day we went to the beach there was something going on. They offerings make a mess of the beach though. They are all made of natural materials so I guess they'll decompose eventually but what a mess. * 3648 x 2736 * (2.62MB)
