Photographs of the final night of the 2004 Esala Perahera, Kandy, Sri Lanka.
I have uploaded these images slightly smaller than usual (650 pixels wide instead of 800) because they had to be shot at very high ISO settings (3200 or 6400) so there was a lot of noise in the originals. All of this gallery was shot by available light (a few street lamps and the fire-sticks). I was shooting from too far away to use flash. I have removed as much noise as I could in post processing, but there is still some degradation in quality.
They are FANTASTIC now i feel like i would like to go over and celebrate an it has really helped me with my school project.
Thank you
XOXO
