Sadhu (Hindu Holy man) covered with ritual wood ash and wearing necklaces or ritual Rudraksha beads, at the Kumbh Mela 2013 Hindu festival near Allahabad (India).

Thousands of Hindu devotees gather on the bank of the Ganges river at the Sangam where they will take the Holy Dip. The Triveni Sangam is the confluence of the Yamuna and the Ganga (Ganges) rivers, and this is the holiest place to take the ritual baths during the Kumbh Mela.

A huge crowd of Hindu devotees, men and boys, heads towards the Ganges river at the Kumbh Mela 2013 Hindu festival near Allahabad (India).

Abandoned Train Station, now occupied by a bar called "la flèche d'or".
The "Petite Ceinture" or "PC" (Small Belt) is an abandoned railway line in the city of Paris (France).
The PC circles around Paris, hence the name "Small Belt". It was used for metro-type passenger trains until 1934. Since then, it is completely abandoned, made obsolete by the new underground metro lines, but most of the rails, tunnels and stations still exist. The PC mostly runs in trench or overpasses, with a few tunnel segments.
A classic destination for Parisian graffiti artists and urban explorers! Of course, this is a NO TRESPASSING area, and the Police Ferroviaire (Railway Police) occasionally writes hefty tickets to trespassers.
Check my other photos of railways.
For more photos and information about this abandoned railway line, please go to my Petite Ceinture photo album.

This is not me on the photo, but it is my Burning Man land sailing gear!
Check other photos of me windsurfing on the playa!
Sadly all my land sailing gear got stolen (yes, stolen!) last year at Burning Man 2007 (board, 2 sails, 2 carbon masts, 2 booms, streamers), more than $1500 worth of equipment. The equipment was stolen just before the dust storm on Friday afternoon, near 8:00 and Esplanade in front of the minigolf camp. I filed a police report. Any information about this equipment is welcome, e.g. maybe you have seen your neighbors coming to their camp with all this gear?
I don't know if I'll have the heart to do that again...
