Applying henna on hands on the eve of Eid-ul fithr is a long standing tradition in India. A scene from my village. Happy Eid mubarak to everyone.

For me it is like a page of one of the National Geographic magazines. Very good shot of an interesting custom. Thank you, Sayed.

Happy Eid Sayed! I quite often see women with henna tattoos in London, they're so intricately done. I like this shot - I'm actually struck by the bright bangles and bracelets too, and the brightly coloured paint on the wall behind.
