Anger in those eyes.

An Aboriginal ritual, piercing and smacking themselves with sharp objects. Then they go to work the next day.

June 12 marks this year’s Chinese Dragon Boat Festival. The main event is the boat race ceremony that honor the deeds of an ancient nobleman, but there are plenty of other things going on. These pics come just from the festival the day after. What I liked about the festival in Taiwan was the heavy influence the Aboriginal cultures had on the celebrations.
