Then the gods descended on the street...

A few weeks ago I was in Mysore, a city in the southern part of India, where I witnessed a parade of sorts. They were celebrating the Ganesha Festival (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganesh_Chaturthi). The procession was full of colour, fireworks, dancing and gods, as you will see in the pictures.
