'Carnival Time'

crta.png

No more waiting! The carnival has started. The keys of the town were taken away from the mayor who had no choice but to surrender them. Thousands are pouring into Samobor and joining the action. The week of joyful lunacy has started. This young lady riding a trike really likes to open the valves and be heard. :D

Her make-up speaks tons about the awesome situation that the country is facing regarding the economy, education, politics...you name it. What first comes to mind is an old Chinese saying: 'The grass cares not, wheater the elephants are fighting or making love on it.' A good one, eh? A friend of mine told me that one just yesterday. He was referring to the politics and common people, of course.

This is a guy riding the shotgun. Mad Max dystopian style all over the place. I find really refreshing seeing this. Enough of endless oceans of same old masks every year. Check out how detailed are the makeups.

The cars are fixed in amazing ways. It must have taken days form all these jolly unemployed guys to do all the work. Take a look at the wheel! They take carnival season dead seriously, for sure. :D

Wow, these guys brought along a cannon. The firecrackers that it shoots might become an unexpected experience if one is walking about staring into the viewfinder. It sure startled me when it detonated behind me.

Maybe you've already made your mind and are on your way to joining the fun. Do you have something like this in your country? Did the girl holding a bloody machete just call me to come over? Wow... How should I understand this? ;-)

Enjoy your day! :-)

Nice ! :)

That seems like it was quite an enduring experience. Amazing pictures, I really got a feel of the atmosphere.

Those are some dope make ups, costumes and custom modification they have going on.

Lol. Yeah we do but most of our carnivals are during the christmas/new year period. Its so much fun. Crackers, girls, booze and a lot more.. Beautiful arts man

Wow they are all amazing, is that a cosplay?

Nope, it is a mainstream carnival event....makes it weirder :D

Wow . Awesome rides there. These rides are simply terrific.I want to see them ride. Anyways nice post. Cheers

You have very good work. But to be honest, they even shocked me. I did not imagine that such holidays exist. It seemed to me that such things happen only in films. Thank you, you open my eyes!

Hi @velimir, that's a very interesting carnival, I'm glad to see you are still doing these posts; I love reading about travel in general.

I am currently working on a Steemit Community Growth project, and i would love to get your feedback - I am trying to get delegated SP to kickstart the project, but I am finding it difficult!

Waw! Everything looks so intense!

Love that post apocalyptic look!! Epic!

Travel!

Do not hesitate
as hesitation is leading to defeat.

Travel!

And enjoy it.
Travel through time.

Travel!

Until you find the truth,
no matter where it is hidden.

Travel!

And search for it
even if it was in the unknown.

On the road
leading from east to west.

So, we may meet there.
For the best.

hope everything will be going well

some great think bro kipp it up

wHO IS tHAT GIRL ? AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE SHE IS STANDING?

Wow!! It's really one of your greatest posts.

Actually the carnival was a frenzy party. This frenzied party is given space by the culture to develop a particular institution where this madness is expressed in the short or three-day period in a controlled context of everyday life. Carnival makes a village full of fun and joyful people is very helpful with drinking alcohol and a variety of strange clothing covered by people who win for three days. In the carnival fashion can be seen as a place mask and can do other things far into the daily life, as an outlet to get out of daily life.

That looks like great fun, excellent post.

Looks like a movie set for Mad Max II. lol

wow ,, very interesting .. i think this is very creative in following carnival. posting fun

Definitely Mad Max-esque for sure! Looks like a fun place to be...seems like you’d never really know who was holding something actually dangerous and who was holding a prop!

Outstanding photography,
Some girls looking hunted types @velimir

looks good fun hope it didint scare the shite out of any kids lol
