Last shot is my fave here for its strong sense of backstory

Very interesting set Vyeko, and really likin that second shot with the dof used to make the character stand out so well.

Thank you all. This kind of carnivals in Europe are from pagans time and celebrate spring.That mask from sheep skin are unique.Mask name is Korant and with looks and dancing with bells need to scare bad spirit of winter.
This carnival is bigger that carnival in Venice and have so many different kind of mask.Is it so close to Venice only 400 km.

My thoughts exactly. I also like the light on the witches face too.

Cool- I like the bright strong colors. Hope that guy with the cigarette doesn't drop it into the wool.

Cool set - I too like the DOF in the 2nd. I also like the contradiction between with the witch holding a broom and eating a doughnut, simililarly the characters in the last shot with their heads off and smoking. In the 4th I like the figures in the sign overlooking the activity. Of course they are all good shots telling a colourful story.
