Shot at the new edition of the World Port Days of Rotterdam. here. Number 2 of the street shots I made there to get further acquainted with the Lumix GX9.
The Dutch National Police was on strike at the World Port Days and the goings at the festivities were monitored by 'crowd managers' of TSC, a private security corporation.
Crowd control @ the KunstHal is here.

I've been over to Hastings today, for the Jack in the Green festivities and the gathering of thousands of bikers.
Whilst I took loads of photos of people dressed up and of bikes, it was these 2 that made my pic of the day, simply because it's been such a long time since "Crowd Management" has been needed ... and they were needed, coz there were tens of thousands of us milling about.
Met up with Pauls Pix 53 at lunch time and we wandered around the boats and bikes.

The ordonance service comes into action on Dam Square because it became too busy in the Kalverstraat and sufficient physical distance could not be kept between the visitors. About an hour later, the Kalverstraat was closed to pre-Christmas shoppers.

Images from Ganpati Visarjan and the morning after : 23rd and 24th September 2018 at Mumbai's Girgaum Chowpatty
A big THANK YOU to the Mumbai Police, the huge army of volunteers, the BMC cleaners, student clean up gangs and the people of Mumbai for ensuring a safe and peaceful Ganesh festival.
While we all enjoyed the carnival atmosphere and the sight of the huge Ganesh idols proceeding for immersion, let us remember that immersion is environmentally unfriendly, indeed highly polluting our seas and water bodies. Let us move to symbolic immersion before it is too late and we destroy our seas forever.

A big THANK YOU to the MUMBAI POLICE and the Volunteers for exemplary crowd management ... and believe me it was crowded on Sunday. A big THANK YOU as well to the BMC CLEANERS and Volunteer Clean Up gangs (mostly students) who tidied the beach the next morning even as the last few big Ganapatis were being pushed out to sea.
Thanks also to the people of Mumbai who enjoyed the festival in a peaceful manner. No instances of misbehaviour were reported in such huge crowds which in itself is commendable.
While we all enjoyed the spectacle of the huge Ganpati floats and the carnival atmosphere, let us not forget that IMMERSION is highly polluting and we are destroying our seas and water bodies with this practice, which dear Ganesha would most certainly not want.
The Ganesh festival should move to the practice of symbolic immersion of small permanent idols.
Walking around there was a feeling of extreme crowd control and social engineering. I think I'll stay home with my Fear and Sanity
"Clash of the Titans" ???? These 2 huge Ganesh idols were in the sea on Monday morning. The green idol is an unsubmerged one from the previous night and the yellow is getting a send off.
