The Beach of (not so gently) Used Ganeshes

The aftermath of Anant Chaturdashi (from Ultrabrown). Don't forget to check out the prelude....

*Anant Chaturdashi is the last day of the Hindu festival of Ganeshotsav. It is generally the tenth or eleventh day after Ganesh Chaturthi, and all the Ganesh idols brought into homes and communities are immersed in the sea or nearby lakes and rivers. On this day, people travel to the waterfront with the idols, large and small, dancing and singing in large processions. Lord Ganesha is departed, only to be welcomed the next year with equal excitement. (Wikipedia)
