Celebration Yao New Year in the Yao Mien village of Ban JhonKa. Muang Sing District, Luang Namtha province, Lao PDR. 22/01/2009. This album replaces one I put on Zenfolio ten years ago. The images include men in trance, battling with fire and animal sacrifice. If you have trouble seeing this, I suggest you skip over it rapidly.
