Having a blast
Spectators gather to watch a rocket launching competition at the 'Look Noo' festival
in tambon Ban Chang of Pathum Thani's Muang district. The Mon practice of
lighting up funeral pyres with rockets, which was initially meant as a way to
honour venerated individuals, has evolved over the years into an amateur rocket-
launching competition attended by hundreds of participants from across the
country. (Photos: Pongpat Wongyala)
