Appropriately dubbed “The Water Festival,” Songkran is a no-holds-barred country-wide water fight that takes place in Thailand under the auspices of a new Lunar Year celebration from April 13 – 15. While it’s almost surely one of the most uninhibited good times to be had anywhere, electronics (even those claiming to be water-resistant or within “safe” confines of a waterproof pouch) are in grave peril during this indelibly soggy but undeniably fun holiday.
These photos document the struggle of a camera’s survival whilst attempting to capture the madness and hilarity of Songkran Festival in its epicenter of action:

Looking at the photos has given me some great ideas the festival will be like but what I know is that their will be no water fight which I think is slightly disappointing but at least my camera will be safe. The photos are amazing and have given me some ideas on what I will hopefully be photographing.
