Photo of the Day (9/2/06)

Looking at a photo like this one might imagine that the large group of villagers dressed in their everyday attire have come together to watch a wrestling match or two goats brutally head-butt each other, but in this case both guesses would be so wrong. This shot of on-lookers was captured by teokaye at a Tajik wedding. The children look on so intensely it really makes you wonder. He notes that 85% of everyone doesn't participate and isn't even invited at most Tajik village weddings. In Tajik culture it's pretty much a given that they'll show up. Only family and friends dance. Now that's how you crash a wedding party!
