Tamil Chariot Festival in Ealing

West Ealing, London. 8 August 2010


 
 Men stand waiting outside the temple behind the chariot; each is naked above the waist and holds a coconut

 

 The chariot moves forward to make space for some to lie down on the road

 

 Others wait until there is room for them too

  The chariot is highly decorated
        
people wait with bowls of fruit and a coconut to make their offering 

 

As the chariot moves forward the men roll over behind it 

 

making room for some of the others waiting to join them on the road
