Dia De Los Muertos
We are fortunate to have a large Hispanic community in Nashville. A local museum played host to what was more a general cultural expo than a hardcore dead celebration.

4. Thanks
I find the holiday and the point of it very touching, full of heart. I saw one guy carrying a skeleton doll around on his shoulders and thought it was a great metaphor for something ... he disappeared into the crowd and I couldn't get a pic, though.

7. That's a Deep Violet, Wouldn't You Say?
On that one mask?

Maybe whomever said that about digitals and purples was wrong.
