Loi Krathong Festival (Mae Hong Son, Thailand)

            Loi Krathong is a festival celebrated annually throughout Thailand . The name could be translated "Floating Crown" or "Floating Decoration", and comes from the tradition of making boyant decorations which are then floated on a river, or as in this case, on a lake. This picture is from the Loi Krathong celebration in Mae Hong Son near the Burmese border in northern Thailand. The celebrations were held around the Chong Kham lake, with many lights, music and fun.
