Ubud, Bali. July 15 2008. Funeral procession for Agung Suyasa, head of the Ubud royal family, who died March 28. His body is being taken to the cremation grounds. In Bali this is a joyous occasion, since cremation releases your soul so that you may be reborn. There were several large floats in the parade, each followed by processional gamelan, known as beleganjur. This is the finale: the largest tower, followed by tens of thousands of onlookers (the crowd went on about 20 minutes before it slackened!).
