Made another trip to the\u00a0Holi Festival<\/a> at the\u00a0Krisha Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There wasn’t a big organized group of photographers, but there were of course plenty there anyway.<\/p>\n

This time I also brought along the family. My five year old was especially excited to go. He had a great time, especially when he realized he could throw the colors at anyone he wanted, and that we encouraged it all the more when the person didn’t have any color on them yet (below left) \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Overall there were quite a few more families then last year which was awesome to see. It is a great family event. I’d love to see them do a throw dedicated to families to encourage more to come out, where they wouldn’t get run over by all the college guys as much.<\/p>\n

This year was quite a bit colder then last year. It was overcast the whole time. It had rained and snowed the day and night before, and the normally grassy hill turned into a lot of mud. Which of course people took advantage of and it was soon a mud slide that people would go sliding down.<\/p>\n

Sometimes people would get colors put on them, and sometimes they’d do it themselves<\/p>\n

A few more faves. The first being my son, which of couse is my most favorite of all \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

It was an awesome event, and can’t wait to do it again next year!<\/p>\n
