14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Firetest

The worship of Goddess Sitala is very common in WestBengal but the celebration is not the same everywhere.I met this risky celebration (custom ) in a village where the devotees carries little fire on their heads and a person puts some flammable objects into it that prompts the fire to mumtiply.I realised that how faith can overcome risks.
