Puzzle Description:

Bob and Kate are caught out of doors during the festival of Holi. While heading back to their hotel they where hit numerous times by bags of powdered dye thrown by the revelers. Bob takes it in stride and joins in, caught here behind the wall of the hotel about to throw a bag of green. Kate is not amused. This is a brand new sari.

The whole time I was working on this I thought it looked like someone vomited color. Now I know why. An interesting interpretaion.

Ouch! Interesting interpretation? I can feel the air quotes. I watched the movie Outsourced that inspired the new TV show with the same name. Holi was the scene where the anglo character has his Indian epiphany. I wanted to capture a bit of that chaos and do a WCP that wasn't the Taj Mahal. Others here have already done a better job with that than I ever could.

I really enjoyed the movie "Outsourced" - better than the series.

At Brian - no need to feel any pain and please don't, on my behalf, feel what isn't there.

No need to worry byrdie. I'm happy and healthy as are my family and friends. All is well. It has been a great year. The days are now getting longer and stars will soon return to my night sky. life is good.
