Possession at Sandal Time

Possession at Sandal Time, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

I have shot this extensively, the guys who carry the sandal of the Holy Saint invariably go into a stunning trance , a kind of possession.
They are held by their mates before they go berserk.. its a phenomenon I cannot answer ..

I have however shot the possessed women at Dargahs , and this is a real tough subject to shoot..and all this possession pictures in a 6 GB card I hope to upload at Flickr before Moharam starts..
